Some say kindness is a fleeting notion sought by dreamers who have no clue about life Some say kindness has gone out of style suffocated by a world filled with greed and strife
Feel sorry for those who view kindness as an out-of-date relic that no longer exists A world built on cynicism and doubt makes it difficult even for love to persist
Kindness is a spirit most gentle that lives in everyone’s heart It brings us to a place of comfort and peace For many it provides a new start
We can push kindness aside for convenience It may at times get in our way But kindness will never be erased from this world We see its effects each and every day
Kindness does not have to be a grand effort It is a smile, a gesture, a comforting embrace Kindness restores our hope in each other Kindness gives heart to the entire human race
Practice kindness each day that you live It will nourish your mind and soul Kindness rids our lives of emptiness Kindness makes us whole

Donna, thank you so much for the beautiful poem that you wrote. I have it stored in my favorite area, a reminder that I need to practice every day, our world would be a much better place if we all dealt with each other with kindness.
Thank you, Deb
