Black orchid

The Poet's Corner

By Malcolm Little Black





A little smile and hearty laughter

Make the earth spin faster,

On its orbit powered by love,

A pretty orchid viewed from above…





A little kindness laced with grin,

And empathy claims the win,

A touch of goodness heals

A broken heart better than pills…





The varied notes of peace,

Bring harmony to a piece,

And so also the seed of unity,

Planted on the soil of humanity…





A soothing word, a simple hug

Sure keeps away the flu bug,

May we diffuse the fog of hatred,

To keep the air of love uninfected.
