Christmas forgiveness, kindness & love (poem)

Christmas forgiveness, kindness, & love

Let Christmas be a time when forgiveness thrives,
A time when anger departs and peace arrives.
A time when hate is tossed aside into the bin,
A time when friendship between all can begin.

Let Christmas be a time when kindness is there,
When those you have forgotten, find that you care.
A time to remember the kindness you have known,
To say thank you for the kindness others have shown.

Let Christmas be a time when your love can be found,
Where your love is shared with your friends all around.
Where your love is extended to those that you meet,
Even to strangers that you past on the street.

Let Christmas be a time full of joy and good cheer,
Where on the road of life, peace and harmony steer.
From your heart, let the goodwill of Christmas begin,
And when Christmas departs, keep its goodwill within.

Leaves within a storm (poem)

Leaves within a storm

Within a gentle breeze, the leaves softly sway;
But beyond the breeze, there’s a storm on its way.
Slowly the breeze grows and the leaves start swinging;
A hint of the winds that the storm is bringing.

The storm soon arrives with its wild winds in toe,
Encouraging all the leaves to dance to and fro.
A few leaves break free, they start spinning in flight,
Skipping down the lane, fading out of sight.

The storm tosses some leaves out from that wild race,
Spiralling them down into a calmer place.
Sweeping them into heaps, resting together,
Into a sheltered spot, avoiding the weather.

Other leaves will ride out the storm, flying high,
Only touching land once the storm has passed by.
Settling down once more as the storm fades away,
Whilst above them on the trees, the leaves softly sway.

Kind words and a smile (poem)

Kind words and a smile

Kind words and a smile,
Can make life worthwhile,
And bring joy to all those that you meet.
Just a word or two,
Just a ‘how are you?’
Can spread cheer as you walk down the street.

Doing a good deed,
For someone in need,
Can make their lives feel better this day.
Just a helping hand,
Can get them to stand,
Give them the strength to find a new way.

If someone’s in doubt,
Then just help them out,
Help to restore some peace in their mind.
When you have no clue,
On what you can do,
There is always the choice to be kind.
