Some With Faces

Friends with names, some with faces all with voices to be heard With a pen or a keyboard and with thoughts from which we learn Friends no less, from a distance all with feelings meant to share Welcome songs in the silence when it seems no one is there Words are spent, some are lavished all are welcomed through the day In this world, any kindness is worth more than I can say For Soupers

While reading this, I am reminded of a quote in the movie "Evan Almighty" "How do you change the world? One single act of random kindness at a time". A true friend is a rare find indeed. Such a beautiful dedication. Thank you for being here and for your friendship. Congratulations Mike, on Poem of the Day. :) Brandy

'In this world, any kindness is more than I can say' -- Wow, Mike! Right on target there. Kindness has never been in great measure throughout the millenia. Our century/centuries, no exception to that 'historical trend.'... One kindness a day keeps the devouring jungle away, I say. Bravo, and congrats on POTD. Caring and Kindnesses, Gershon

Thanks Gershon, it really does make a difference and your nice words always give me encouragement and mean a lot!
