The act of kindness

The power of kindness
Is a wondrous thing
When genuinely given
It makes one's heart sing 

The power it holds 
More precious than most
Is good for the receiver
And good for the host 

Kindness can be shown
In actions and word
From the soft brush of hand
To feelings of being heard 

Kindness is love
In the darkest of times
Lifting spirits aloft
Through the whimsy of rhymes
