Head to Heart
To handle yourself use your head !
To handle others use your heart !!
With wisdom's light, your path is clear,
Make choices wise, without a fear.
Yet when connecting, heart's the key,
To handle others, empathy!
With kindness' touch and love's embrace,
Embrace their souls, find common space.
So balance both, with gentle art,
Head and heart, a perfect chart.
In harmony, you'll surely find,
A world where hearts and minds align.
