Kindness

(Dedication: For my wife Ann) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kindness wears thought grand As beauty befriends Kindness wears a smile As lovely lips style Kindness wears a face As sparkling eyes grace Kindness wears a look As charming gaze books Kindness wears a glance As soul prompts calm chance Kindness wears a name As love forgets blame Kindness wears a touch As health cures so much Kindness wears a will As goodness now thrills Kindness wears a form As stillness moves norm Kindness wears a feel As love now reveals Kindness wears love best As a healing quest Leon Enriquez 26 October 2017 Singapore

The rhyme works to some extend even though it is not perfect. Most of the lines accomplish the thought and the poetic thought is seen in some of them. Good try! Luis Estable

Dear Luis: You are spot on. I normally write the first draft, make a few changes in a fast edit, and finalise. This piece took about 15 minutes in a quick flash. I don't aim for perfection, just completion. Thank you for your sharp observation. All the best then, Leon.
