Kindness Alms Within

In the quiet chambers of the heart's embrace,

Where empathy blooms with a gentle grace,

We find a treasure, a currency untold,

The alms of kindness, a wealth to unfold.

In the mirror of compassion, we see,

Reflections of a shared humanity,

The currency of care, freely spent,

A gift to oneself, in kindness lent.

No gold or silver, but a tender smile,

A balm to heal, even the longest mile,

We give ourselves alms, a sacred art,

A soothing salve for the wounded heart.

In the tapestry of time, we weave,

Threads of empathy, the soul's reprieve,

For in giving kindness, we receive,

A wealth of joy that hearts believe.

Like petals falling from a gentle breeze,

Acts of kindness flutter with such ease,

To oneself, an offering, a tender balm,

In the quiet sanctuary of the soul's calm.

A gentle touch, a whispered word,

The alms of kindness, like a songbird,

Singing melodies of love and grace,

A sweet symphony, the heart's embrace.

So let us be generous with our own hearts,

Bestow upon ourselves the kindest parts,

For in the act of giving, we find,

A richer, deeper, and kinder state of mind.
