PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Every day we get a little closer to dying…that’s just reality…

although we don’t know exactly when our last day on Earth will be.

So each day as we move a little closer to the end…

we should try and get a little closer to our family and friends…

Since once a day is over…never to repeat

each day we should try to be a little kinder to everyone we meet.

A little kinder to all the people who look or act differently… 

A little kinder to the animals…to the air, the land…the sea.

And each day as we try to be a little kinder to the world…

wouldn’t it be swell…

If we could try to be a little kinder to ourselves as well.

For there are no more beautiful words that can e’er be said…

when it’s our time to live no more…

than: 

everyday we tried to be a little kinder 

than we were the day before.
