The extra step (sonnet)

Every now and then, we feel satisfied

So satisfied with what we feel and do

We have a good heart and are often kind

Occasionally some charity too.

But my God, my good Creator, today

I want to take at least one extra step 

Or an extra mile on that golden way  

Please God help me to run an added lap 

If every day, a few new steps we take

One more small kindness and a loving phrase 

An enormous difference we would make

Towards a better world in many ways

Let’s commit each day to a little more

Soon harmony will reign on every shore

Note:
Sonnets are poems of 14 verses with rhymes
ababcdcdefefgg
each verse contains 10 spoken syllables

I have written three other sonnets (under author name of Aufie Zophy):
My first attempt: The golden key (perhaps the one I still like best)
My second attempt: The song of heaven
My third attempt: The most beautiful poem
I think my first three attempts are more worthy of the name sonnet,
since they contain a bit of a message of romantic love, dedicated to 
my lovely wife, to whom I am married this year for 25 years...
