Kindness

Fold two hands together
and express a dash of sorrow
marinate it overnight
and work on it tomorrow.
Chop one grudge in tiny pieces
add several cups of love
dredge with a large sized smile
mix with the ingredients above.
Dissolve the hate within you
by doing a good deed
cut in and help your friend
if he should be in need.
Stir in laughter, love and kindness
from the heart, it has to come
toss with genuine forgiveness
and give your neighbor some.
The amount of people served
will depend on you
it can serve the whole wide world
if you really want it to.
