Kindness
Kindness can be costly
requires effort and sacrifice on our part.
Kindness can be risky
If over trust others
Kindness turns enemies into friends
Can change their perspectives
And kindness saves people's lives
Kindness is through
the power of a touch
a smile
a listening ear
a kind word
and the smallest act of caring
