An Act Of Kindness..by Michael

A Poem by Michael Reisman




Holding a door for someone or pulling up their chair,


An act of kindness. Helping the elderly cross the street


Will bring the same smile to their face.


A stray cat or dog may be taken in as a pet,


For this is now their new life where they are finally loved.


A helping hand well appreciated. With no special occasion,


A flower is given just for the simple kindness of the soul


Who presented it to her. A smile and a tear is returned as a feeling of


Being loved is shared. When we put others before ourselves,


Then that perhaps is the greatest gift to give. In return


The rewards pay back a thousand fold. She held the door


For him and pulled up his chair. The bride kissed the groom as


Good deeds were returned. Three dogs and two cats


Were now part of a family that had just begun to live.


An old lady was invited to the wedding who made a heartfelt speech.


"I crossed the street some years ago as this young man


Helped me do so." Smiles and tears were mixed


Among the guests as they all began to perform


In their own way, an act of kindness...
