A gentle gesture of kindness
Will go a very long way
And be remembered for many years.
Many feelings it can sway.
You may not think it very much
But to the recipient
It could mean the world's NOT hostile-
That, still existing, is good intent.
You may receive a smile, a hug,
Or even a friendly chat.
Some people are so grateful, you'll find,
They'll gladly do all of that.
I believe the very best gift
Is knowing you've helped someone.
It will bring a warm glow to your heaart
As nothing else has yet done.
So anytime you have a chance
Show kindness to another.
Take that happy opportunity-
Influence Future's mother.
