Forever Stayed


  	a smile 
        in a sunny way
        lodged in 
        the receiver’s heart
         ~ forever stayed

Love this, Gershon. The kindness of some strangers over the years left their warmth on my soul and heart. Shabbat Shalom :)

Hello Gershon, today your little piece lands like a sun-warm flicker. Amazing how a few lines can feel like a whole memory opening light traveling farther than it should, refusing to fade. I am thankful for your small, bright kindness that lingers in my life. Blessings, Daniel
