Kindness

There is coin not all will trade
A coin that lifts when hope fades
From worldly greed that degrades. 

Coin not for apple or pear 
A coin na' the less to share
To freely give if you dare.

There's no return or reward
Give it at your own accord
As all can this coin afford.

A coin divine not of flint
One of kindness God did mint
Now be human take the hint.

Give generously today.

A great write Ross. I try and do an act of kindness each day. This morning I met with a friend who was working all day but was suffering with a head cold and had no drugs. I went and bought her some and dropped them into her work place.
