Loving Kindness

I found this piece of poem
written by Bhante Sujivo
which I treasure quite a lot
when I was clearing my old stuff

Hope this poem will remain here
for future reference:

A heart feels
Oh! so much
so very deeply.

When you hold
a heart
in your hand
please be very gentle
O be very gentle!
Say not a hurting workd.
Look not a spiteful look.
Draw it close to your breast.
Feel its warmth and tenderness
its feats and hopes.
Hug it, love it.
Treasure it, but o please
Don't every hurt it!

A heart is very soft,
tender and fragile
easily broken.

When you hold
a heart
in your hand
Hold it with utmost care!
Love it with truest love!
Lest it tembles
& breaks!
