A little kindness never hurts... in fact, it helps to heal and mend; a salve that comforts and diverts pain in a loved one or a friend. I try to uplift those with needs... a little kindness never hurts; to take the time with words or deeds, and watch how frown to smile converts. My heartfelt gesture reasserts... soft loving touch on arm or hand. A little kindness never hurts to help one know I understand. My gifts of kindness, large or small... a homemade card, a meal, desserts, for just a while can please, enthrall. A little kindness never hurts.

You did yours using the same kind of form I would have been drawn to using. Maybe I will do kyrielle instead! Love your poem
