Notes About The Poem

Kindness Unhinged


          Kindness does not cost a penny-  it is free for all,
to be considerate and kind is not that hard to do;
     some would consider me weak, consider this a flaw,
perhaps I am deranged, unhinged, crazy, insane.

          To show kindness is not a weakness- it is strength,
or am I mentally unbalanced and totally confused;
     maybe I am psychotic to even think that anyone cares,
I must be unglued, unhinged to give it away freely.

          But in the end-  I must be true to me and my values,
so kindness and consideration I will give away freely;
     and should I get it back that is a wonderful thing indeed,
more often it is all a one way street with not return address.

           Still, I will never, ever stop being me . . .
