Back in 2017 I was an authlete in the Madness! Poetry competition. My first round word was propagate and I wrote several poems before selecting one to submit. This is one of the poems I did not share.
Spread the Love
Like plants we snip and grow,
we should cultivate kindness,
redouble compassion and caring,
give smiles
in return for nothing.
Like seismic waves that ripple outwards
from the epicenter,
goodwill, charity, and mercy
should be granted
to everyone.
Why do we allow hate to spread?
Let’s choose to propagate love instead.

Happy Saturday all. See you tomorrow for another original poem.
The perfect envoi.
