Life Lines Poetry 10/9/15

"You are ready to change the world"
By: James

my parents
and my brother
taught me to see beauty
in everyone

a rich man donates a large sum
and a poor woman donates
her last two cents
her gift is worth infinitely more

turn and look at your friends,
know that they are your true family
for friends
even enemies become family

a butterfly flapping
its wings
in Japan can cause a hurricane
in Louisiana

today's small act
of kindness
can become tomorrow's whirlwind
of human progress

no matter how much strangers represented beetles,
they could be angels, 
given to us by God to test the deepest sentiments
of our hearts

you are ready to change the world
thank you! 
good luck! 
and congratulations!
