Kindness

A little kindness never hurts;
helps heal and often mends.
Your care soothes and diverts
pain of family or friends.
A little kindness never hurts.

When helping those with needs-
sad frown to smile converts.
Gifts of words or deeds
by selfless acts, comfort reasserts.
A little kindness never hurts.

Your gifts- large or small;
a card, dinner, fresh desserts-
or just visits can enthrall.
This giving of yourself asserts-
a little kindness never hurts.
