Kindness is the Word

Had this on my mind for some time,
What is the real good?
I ask in musing mood
Order, said the law court
Knowledge, said the school
Truth, said the wise man
Pleasure, said the fool
Love, said the maiden
Computers, said the programmer
Beauty, said the page
Freedom, said the dreamer
Home, said the sage
Fame, said the soldier
Equity, said the seer
Spake my heart full sadly, the answer is not here
Then within my bosom softly this I heard,
Each heart holds the secret,
Kindness is the word
What is the real good?
I ask in musing mood
Order, said the law court
Knowledge, said the school
Truth, said the wise man
Pleasure, said the fool
Love, said the maiden
Computers, said the programmer
Beauty, said the page
Freedom, said the dreamer
Home, said the sage
Fame, said the soldier
Equity, said the seer
Spake my heart full sadly, the answer is not here
Then within my bosom softly this I heard,
Each heart holds the secret,
Kindness is the word
