Universal Smile

I am crying.
Most don't love most others.
One mostly loves one's self and isn't trying
To boost the good in others,
but rather is vying
entirely for one's self.
I am crying.

A great lesson is available:
How many do to others
What you would have them do to you?
An unassailable compiling:
If we ALL loved others,
it is absolutely true,
We would ALL be smiling.
