Make a Difference

Sarala extolls the value of care and compassion, in this verse, exclusively for Different Truths.

Caring for someone is the
most vital part of survival on earth
Like the mother bird
Guarding her chicks
All mothers are protective
towards their children
You don’t need to be rich
to care for someone
All you need is some time
to spare in your busy schedule
Keep a lil time for taking care
of the weak and lonely
and the oppressed and the orphans
abandoned by their cruel parents
Wipe the tears of that widow
who lost her husband
saving our motherland
Show some concern
Feel for them from the inner core
Of your heart
Give some love
Give some time
That’s all what you
need to love and be loved!
Make a difference
In someone’s life
Blessings waiting
to be showered on you
from above!
