Sometimes it’s a kindness, a pleasant surprise,
That touches my heart, brings a tear to my eyes.
It may be a small thing, a word or a deed,
But at that exact moment it’s just what I need.
I pray there are times that I too bring a smile,
Stir an old memory just for a while.
Perhaps warm a heart with a few words of rhyme,
Rekindle old embers now cooled over time.
If I share what I write and can touch just a few,
Jot down some verses, spread words I find true,
I can help someone hurting who needs a kind word.
I pray words are shared until many have heard.
I pray that fond memories never grow cold,
Forever stay with us though bodies grow old.
Recall of good memories can make a day start out well, and bring “inward smiles” that last throughout the day. As you have said in your rhyme today, such recall is always welcome!! Thank you, John…God bless! – Donna
