Poems of kindness
Get ready
By Aufie Zophy
Get ready
Get ready for beauty
Get ready, Man
Get ready, M'am
Get ready boys and girls
Beauty is in the sky
Beauty on the water, under the water
On the ground, in the ground, under it
In your soul, in your heart, in your mind
It is in the eyes, on the face
Beauty is everywhere
Get ready for a beautiful day
Get ready
Get ready for wisdom
Get ready, Man
Get ready, M'am
Get ready, boys and girls
Wisdom is in the sky
It is everywhere on the rise
It lies in the random kind act
In the books, in your smile
On the net, in the work we do
In the prayers we say.
Wisdom is on the rise
Get ready,
Get ready for kindness and love
Get ready, Man
Get ready, M'am
Get ready boys and girls
Kindness is coming
It is in a bullet train, an unstoppable TGV
Millions on board already
Gathering momentum, Exponential increases
The train moves at dazzling speed
With open doors, sucking in more and more people
Soon a billion will be on board
Then it will take only seconds
To envelop the whole wide world.
Get ready for a beauty revolt
Get ready for a wisdom revolution
Get ready for a huge kindness revolution.

History of the future
By Aufie Zophy
Tired at night, I went to sleep
I slept tremendously deep
I slept a very long time
I woke up in October of 2110
and some history books of then
were laying in that room of mine
How exciting it was, how queer
to read the history of the coming years
I was in for quite a surprise
The heroes of the 2020's history books
were labelled as what they were, just crooks
Heroes in 2110 were nobody else than the wise
There were some wise people, so clever
who brought to us kindness and wisdom forever
these are the heroes of 2110
Among the heroes, prophets and thinkers were found
poets of wisdom, their names all around
Sages and wise ones from way back,2010
In 2110, from what I could read
there was no longer hunger, no more greed
thanks to the poets sharing wonderful words
I prayed to go back to the time when I had started to sleep
I wanted to share that news, so good, so profound and deep
I was happy to wake up in the now, my prayers were heard
So here I share the wonderful news at last
That greed and hunger will soon be a thing of the past
it all 'll have started in 2021 during spring
History books of the future mention a kindness revolution
Starting in May 2021, affecting all subsequent evolution
Isn't that a wonderful thing?
Sea of kindness
Aufie Zophy
that soon everyone will know
who and what we really are.
All will understand life, and mind.
Cheap pleasure will just be cheap.
Only values will be valuable.
Soon we will see a huge revolution
of kindness, honesty, compassion, friendship
love, tenderness, sweetness, cordiality
Happiness will be readily available.
All will know where to find it:
Right in the middle of that sea of kindness
A cup of enthusiasm
Aufie Zophy
The morning sun rises
Its silky warmth kisses my skin
Soft yellow rays fly straight to my heart
Exquisite colors make the sky smile
What a wonderful way for a day to start
I drink a cup of enthusiasm
Freshly plucked from the most beautiful tree
And the loving winds of care and kindness
Carry me to a place where the world needs me
A day of sweet labor, coming from deep within
A positive difference joyously made
A satisfied soul, peace taking over my mind
The trees still smile, the light doesn't fade
Flowers of Kindness
A small flower in the desert of greed
Sheds some fragrance, sheds a seed.
Two little flowers in the desert of need
Each a bit of fragrance, each gives a seed
Four small flowers growing among weed
Fragrance increases, and yet another seed
Flowers, eight and sixteen and soon thirty two
More and more fragrance and more seeds too.
Sixty four, two fifty six, more than a thousand soon
no more place for weed, crumbling greed and needs,
A million flowers each shed fragrance and seeds
The desert of greed and need and weed recedes
Small acts of kindness, the fragrance will spread
Greed and stress, no more; peace of mind instead
Awareness growing, weed by weed reaches death
Equality an illusion, inequality has no solution
as long as we wait for big shots' contribution
What we really need now is a kindness revolution
It won't be the crooks, the ones who now lead the greed
It won't be the sand in the desert that alleviates the need
Small acts of kindness are fragrance and seed
A billion flowers of kindness, it's easy to see.
A true revolution on its way, as fast as can be.
It depends not on presidents, but on you and on me

Within
Tonight I was peeping silently in my heart.
You know what I found?
I found peace sitting there
I found an awful lot of kindness planted there
I find so much love, ready to be given away. Then I was confronting my mind:
Hey, mind, if there is so much peace, kindness and love in my heart,
why do you not make full use of it and let me enjoy it all, every day?
I got to understand that it was not my mind that was to blame.
Mind was just obeying my own choices I made day by day.
It was thinking the thoughts I was wanting it to think.
But I wanted to choose peace, kindness and love all the time.
I was praying for it and searching for it!
Why did I choose the thoughts that brought so often the opposite?
Reason chipped in with a thought:
Perhaps, you are looking for peace, love and kindness in the wrong place
You seem to keep looking for it and expect it from the outside all the time
Now you have seen where it really sits, it is perhaps time to start looking from within.
