Premium MemberA KIND GESTURE

Today’s blessing comes from the words of Steve Maraboli…
Who, as often is the case, express it better than me.

Since we can’t always see what another person is going through…
what kind of suffering…anguish…ordeal
a kind gesture can reach a wound
that only compassion can heal

First Bloom

Red roses in hand,
A lad gives on his way—
First flower blooms bright.

Premium MemberKind Gesture


It's a kind gesture
that brightens a rainy day
A good feeling comes your way

It's a kind gesture
that isn't too much to give
It measures another

It's a kind gesture 
thar connects us in this world
A birth of love we deserve

It's a kind gesture
Choose a positive way
It comes back to you someday

Living Gesture



Motion,
Constant rhythm,
Crashing, receding flow,
Life's limitless, changing cycles,
Ocean.

An Invite isn't a Gesture to Change me

If I invite you into my home, please do not show up with the floor plan and Pinterest boards of your ideas to decorate it as you see fit. 
I like the plants I have hung up and the rainbow catchers hung in the window. They bring in growth and sunshine. 
And before you forget,

Premium MemberGesture of Hope


Glowing in the spirit, clearly wise, forever alive…

Jasmine clings to the night, edging each heartbeat
In rhythmic letters – softly playing, rustling
Wistful as angel’s wings, coloring the spirit in song,
Reminders that love lasts forever, always, eternal
Pouring out its winsome grace on every soul,
Melting the yesterdays with a hope that craves light,
Nestled in the flames of a

Serendipity

His intrinsic calamity of calmness
burning down my bugbears
meticulous admirer that you are
lifting me through the stairs of Arcadia
with this brutal force of ocean’s nature,
re-reading the solitude of memories 
the real unfolding the fictional underneath 
to profess and pass through the infinite
treasuring the hearts of the time 
like a favourite book of mine

Taking him to a garden, 
She sprinkled flowers on him.
He mistook it for child’s play!
Now, she’s someone’s wife!!

Premium MemberA Genuine Gesture

Genuine gesture from the heart
Is all that it takes on your part, 
Ripples of kindness, to restart ~

And you can bring in... change! 

Say a nice word, give an applause, 
Ere criticising, take a pause, 
Spread cheer when you can, just because ~

And nothing's out of... range! 

Show your cheek, go that extra mile, 
Be

Willy Brandts Gesture

Willy Brandt was the German Chancellor 
Who mended fences after the Second World War
A journalist during the war who fled
To Norway and Sweden campaigning against the Nazis instead

There were many things he did to make amends
For the blood the heartache and dead in the end
On 7 December 1971 he visited the Warsaw Ghetto
Where Polish Jews

One

Difference in the way you think
one wise advice does the action,
Difference in the way you act
one smile does the collection,
Difference in the way you feel
one gesture brings up the zeal.
Difference in the way you work,
one word stops the smirk

Love For Us

Love,
for us humans beings,
is the transgression of affections,
gesture metamorphosis
by speech,
by demonstration of feelings
thus externalized... !
