Others kindness fills your heart
When you receive it
Kindness shows what can be done
When you see it given
Kindness makes you feel so glad
When you have given it
Kindness lets you see the world
In a beautiful and different light
Kindness is a helping hand
That lifts you right up
Kindness is a loving smile
Which you need when you are down
Kindness is the hug you get
From someone who has received it
Kindness is that kiss goodnight
From your spouse as you switch off the light

Kindness lifts us up, both giver and receiver. Nice one, Robin.
ReplyDeleteSo much kindness to receive and to give, we should be quite full. But that kiss goodnight always finds room. For some of us, it is the memory that is kind. For others, there is still time to pay attention. Thanks for all these thoughts.
