Caution! An explosion of hope might happen
At any moment on the corner of your
street, on the hard edge of your seat, beneath your
Tired feet, it might flash…

Beware! What hearts and minds receive, Handle With
Care, fragile, don’t drop, don’t stop till it’s scattered
To the winds that you know, and offered for free —
To people you don’t…

Warning! Kindness might creep in the door in a
Stranger’s hand, dangerous with friendship and bright
possibilities, sharing out days filled with
compassion’s bounty…

If you enjoyed this poem, feel free to follow, read, applaud, share or not as it pleases you… and coffee is always welcome.

Or read something else …
