....... Simple Act of Kindness Can

A simple act of kindness can change a person's whole day
What was once dark, dismal, and gray, you can make gay
It doesn't take much effort to impart something magnificent
I must tell you that a kind word has much force, far from insignificant
A simple act of kindness can be the difference between roads traveled
for instance, to a troubled person needing a lift out of sinking gravel
If you could save a life or a soul by giving a heartfelt greeting, I know you would
Or, stop to say: "Are you okay?" to a soul that was needing
A simple act of kindness can put color back into a grimacing face
Move someone from self-destruction and self-hate
So they can find redemption in God's loving grace
It need not be your life's work, but it can give worth to someone else's life
Turn away from strife to a place where hope is rife
A simple act of kindness can bridge the chasm between enemies
Put aside pride and ambition so children can grow with fonder memories
Our differences are so minute when likenesses are tallied
That comforting a sick child is salient, no matter creed or malady
A simple act of kindness can bring distance short
When families are vexed and mouths speak of tort
The irony of our Human frailties can be abated with kindness
to put an end to senseless acts of depravity, and to visceral violence
Remember and add to this: A simple Act of Kindness can
