Kindness To Animals Poem by Akhtar Jawad

The best of kindness is to be kind on someone,
For whom not only the men but even fate is unkind and cruel,
Pity on someone who is not responsible of his birth,
Call it a game of probability or describe it as fate,
One born in an unfavorable environment,
With a life, that is worse than a curse,
You are at liberty to call it a test or punishment,
But the fact remains many lives are lives of pains,
Hunger is not self-made, an imposed instinct,
No living cell ever asked for a life,
Even if a rebirth by Karma of the previous life,
Is pitiable and can’t be explained,
As to why such painful lives are created,
Still there is a ray of hope for the proud of humans,
A number of humans are kind on sick and hungry creatures,
And relieving the nature from a fatigue unending,
Hats off for those kind souls, who are not only kind to the ailing men,
But also kinds to animals who are born like undesired infants.
