Kindness Has Wings

Such a beautiful thing
                           that kindness lasts forever
The gesture of a simple smile
               can bring about a touch of warmth

As I remember kindness done unto me, 
        my heart sings, as though it had wings

A very uplifting verse Mike, and an act of kindness makes someone's day and costs nothing. Just playing catch up as I've been away. Hope you're well. Tom

One never knows what kind of impact a simple smile or kind deed will do to change someone’s life, to make a difference. We will see that like a recording when we pass on I have learned from NDE (experiences). My own mother had one. You never know what chaos someone might be going through. I think of that when someone is unkind to me and I just bless them. I love your poem Mike. Blessings xxoo
