Actors and Reactors

We are all actors

And we are also reactors

Our acts influence others around us

As we learn the good or otherwise

We react as others perform

And we acquire values to reform

It's a constant watching of expression

Followed by reaction and progression

Some acts exemplify what to do

While others are examples of what not to

This appreciation of goodness

And the diminishing of emptiness,

To believe in what's right

And drop what must be left,

To realize the essence of the creativity

And to be able to recognize its beauty

To be able to see the eyes that gleam

And to smile with the lips that beam

To hear the words that dance with sweet joy

And to laugh with the heart that sings ahoy

Is to act and react as we transact

And to be one with One as we connect.
