Compassion In Poetry Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Poetry of the truly great poets
I so admire so often addresses,
high ideals and noble concepts

of our shared common humanity,
therefore great poetry should
respect and affirm true freedom,

and compassion for our fellow
human beings in every land,
on every continent in God’s

creation. The great poets all
address concerns of their age,
the tensions spirit of their age.

Love for their suffering fellow man
‘regardless of race greed or colour’
expressed in a spectrum of compassion.
