Compassion

Such simple acts first to heal the crowds
Then to take what is little, what is small
And multiply it. Not divide, not complain, 
Not send them away I've done enough
Seating them all and praying together
Never just enough, more and more always
Giving without conditions, without strings,
Without a requirement of belief or baptism
Just freely given food to everyone, healed
And not healed, complainers and doers,
Believers and unbelievers all receive, all are blessed
God's abundance displayed in the simple act
Of feeding bread and fish freely given with
Leftovers to be collected because we all
Need to learn of limitlessness and the pure
Abundance of compassion we might also give
