Be Good and Kind
Gems of thought from my pencil go
As waters from a fountain flow
A soul to you I'll leave behind
To water the lands of be good and kind
Should you gather this gem of thought
Don't let your lives be spent for naught
For if you will but glance around
Lots of such gardens can be found
As the world draws to an end
These gardens you've watered shall be your friend
They will come in through your open door
And on you their blessings they'll pour
So be good and kind to all you meet
Kind little words to a child in the street
Can help that little child you know
Into a better man to grow.
