You can still be kind when… (poem)

13 Apr

You can still be kind when…

You can still be kind when others are not,
Bringing your kindness when they have forgot.
Bringing your gentleness when times are hard,
Helping them to heal when they have been scarred.

You can still be kind when others hold back,
Replacing within them what they now lack.
Replacing their emptiness with new hope,
Helping them to realise they can cope.

You can still be kind when their world turns grey,
Letting them see that your kindness will stay.
Letting them see that life is worth living,
Helping them to find hope in your giving.

You can still be kind when it’s hard to do,
For your kindness will help to see you through.
For your kindness will mend you from within,
Helping you to know your kindness will win.
