Most
folk
never
do get out
of this life what they
put in, unless satisfaction
of what one puts in is in itself life’s sole reward.
Some just keep on trying to give away kindness but it only keeps on coming back

Great poem Harry - rarely what you do for someone is appreciated but doing good will ensure that something good will come from where least expected! Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

Congratulations on your win, Harry. This one amused me. So many people have not figured it out yet. So basic.

Yes, kindness is like love. There's a Jason Mraz song: "Love is a funny thing. The more you give, it comes back to you." And I see congratulations are in order. Way to go, Harry! Hugs, Carolyn
