Kindness Poems
In Praise of Soft Light
by Richard Randolph
I like soft light best,
candles and moonlight.
Such light always overlooks a blemish
to highlight the deeper beauty-
the sparkle in one's eye,
the glow of a fire, the contours of the night.
It's not concerned with getting to some final truth,
but instead, naturally gregarious, invites us to talk
of our dreams, our aspirations, indeed anything,
usually over a glass of burgundy,

On a Stormy Day
by Precious Whispers
Just like you would open the door
to a stranger on a stormy day,
welcome the souls
who knock on your heart.
You never know what

The kind girl
by Selim Özer
There she is, sitting under a million stars,
the moonlight on her skin seems to alleviate,
a stabbing and lasting pain which does obliterate
her being
why does she even have to feel this pain,
although she has a soul whose kind is kind?

The Gentle Knight
by Christopher KolmenI would much rather be the gentle knight than the fierce one; after all what good is a legacy if it is only bred from the pain you sow.
