TRUE KINDNESS - POTD

I was taught the true meaning of kindness
From the very best
That kindness comes in all shapes and forms
Has substance pure and honest

Kindness is a blessing
Both to those who give and those who receive
It comes straight from an open heart
Without conditions or deceit

Terry Flood Date: 9/12/2023 3:14:00 PM Isn’t it kind of me, to wait over a week to congratulate you on POTD, Deb… rather like keeping back a Christmas present for Boxing Day.

But, on the off chance that you could be taken in by such slanderous notions, I apologise profusely… I’m kind like that ;-) Login to Reply Deb M Date: 9/14/2023 9:37:00 AM Terrence Flood l do expect my Christmas Present on the day this year…..no excuses!!

R J. Elless Date: 9/1/2023 6:04:00 AM Deb, that is meaningful. A great sentiment.
