At Least: Swap Quatrain Contest
Inside the chamber of one's heart, there's at least a pint of goodness,
So do not hesitate to show someone some brave acts of kindness,
Whether life for one is so tough that it could break his faith apart,
There's at least a pint of goodness inside the chamber of one's heart.
In the corner of one's mind, there is at least one good memory,
So do not be so damn lonely and try at least to be merry,
For time is passing too quick, make your memory needs no rewind,
There is at least one good memory in the corner of one's mind.
Underneath one's tough rough skin, there is at least an act of kindness,
So do not hesitate to show someone some brave acts of goodness,
For life is too too short, let it not pass without your caring spin,
There is at least an act of kindness underneath one's tough rough skin.
In the shelter of one's bright eye, there is at least a chance for love,
So do not be too timid to pledge your love to your star above,
For shiny days could be over soon, so do not just try to pry,
There is at least a chance for love in the shelter of one's bright eye.
