All I Want

Click on photo to enlarge

1. All I want in life is just 
a little act of kindness;
a smile, a hug, a gentle pat,
a word of GRATITUDE.
Life is difficult enough 
surrounded by the ones we love,
so why cause others sorrow 
by a careless attitude.

2. What I treasure most are flames 
that issue from the hearts
of those who act with KINDNESS, 
and the warmth their love imparts.
These acts set in motion 
such a river of true peace
great enough to heal our souls 
and make all worries cease.
Just one demonstration 
of the love of Christ within
is strong enough to steer a heart 
away from doubt or sin.

3. A simple SMILE from just a stranger 
can renew our hope,
filling us with cheer, 
instilling strength to help us cope.
We don't always realize 
the power in a smile,
though seeming small at first, 
will gain momentum in a while.

4. When someone is grateful for 
the things that we have done,
it brightens up our hearts just like 
the brilliant noonday sun!
What we really need in life 
are true and sincere friends;
those who give support and love 
until our journey ends.
Money sifts like grains of sand 
and fame fades like the dusk,
but FRIENDSHIP heals the pain 
inflicted by those who are brusque.

5. I'm quite convinced this need 
is not unique to me alone.
To seek SUPPORT and gratitude, 
I feel we all are prone.
So let this be a message 
to all those it may concern.
Expressing gratitude is a
great lesson we should learn!
