Notes About The Poem

Giving

No one has ever become poor by giving – Anne Frank Give the gift of a kind word To someone who needs encouraging Give a gentle smile to one Who may be feeling lonely or blue Give the gift of charity To everyone around you Give the gift of inspiration To someone who needs motivation Give a happy thought of caring To one who isn’t filled with pleasure Give the gift of compassion To everyone around you Give the gift of affection To someone who needs warm thoughts Give a sense of purpose To one who feels downcast Give the gift of empathy To everyone around you Give the gift of helpfulness To someone who needs assistance Give a sense of hopefulness To one who shares your home Give the gift of kind-heartedness To everyone around you Give the gift of reassurance To someone who needs praise Give your appreciation To one who sees you today Give the gift of true concern To everyone around you Give the gift of hope, faith and love To someone who needs the One Christmas is celebrating for Jesus, God’s only Son Merry Christmas – with love

Yes! So well penned! All these gifts we must carry with us all the time, but as you’ve said, our souls with/in Christ find the weight light, if any at all, for it is not a load, but a knowing! Wishing your poem could be sent on lovely stationery to every home in the world. You have given these to me here on PSP. Thank U!
