She is a child of purest nature

A beauty, bestowed to the Earth

Among fragrant, multicolored flowers

Green grass, and butterflies adrift in the air

They dance for her, a ballet of splendor

Fluttering wings, their acknowledgement

They have captured and beguiled

Her applause, a request for an encore

And she smiles, with sheer delight

Out-dazzling the morning’s sun

Humanity needs to share more smiles, create more laughs, show more love

Happy World Kindness Day!!  ❤️

I feel the leaves against my skin

They fall, and swirl, and fall again

Across the meadow, and in between

The most beautiful things I’ve ever seen

Still, they sadden me, when they fall

Where they once held their grandeur, tall

Upon the trees, now bare of them

The ground, soon owns these colored gems

And paints the landscape, bright and bold

A palette of orange, red and gold

With this, I find the need to smile

So I’ll stay, and watch them dance awhile

She laughed at his silly jokes

His inane sense of humor

She made him smile

Her infectious giggles

Sent him soaring

Ever lost in her universe
