“A Shower of Compassion”

Empathy is a gentle rain,
That falls on us and washes away pain,
It’s the comfort that we all need,
To know that someone else will take the lead.

It’s the power to put ourselves in another’s shoes,
To feel their joys, their sorrows, their blues,
To lend a hand and lend an ear,
To show that someone else is near.

Empathy is a guiding light,
That shines on us both day and night,
It’s the way we show we care,
And let others know that we’re always there.

It’s the bond that forms between two hearts,
A connection that never really departs,
For once you’ve felt what someone feels,
You understand what’s truly real.

Empathy is the bridge we build,
Between two souls that need to be filled,
With love and kindness, understanding too,
And a sense of comfort that feels so true.

So let us all embrace empathy,
And let it guide us to unity,
For when we see the world through another’s eyes,
We realize that we’re all one, and love truly lies.
