Kind Words
Kind words are such a blessing to the needful,
If one but knew the pleasure that they bring
To turn the sadness of a dark day's Winter
Into the glowing life and hope of Spring.
A freely given smile is seed well planted
For when the days of giving are quite gone,
One reaps the ripened harvest of a life-time
And smiling, steps to meet the bright new dawn!
Poet: John McLeod
