Beautiful poems on kindness

So many gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and wind,
When just the art of being kind
Is all this sad world needs.
(Ella Wheeler Wilcox : 1850-1919) 


Is she kind as she is fair? 
For beauty lives with kindness. 
(Shakespeare : The Two Gentlemen of Verona) 


That best portion of a good man's life,
His little, nameless, unremembered acts 
Of kindness and of love. 
(Wordsworth : Tintern Abbey)


If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain. 
If I can ease one life from aching,
Or cool one pain, 
Or help one fainting robin 
Into his nest again, 
I shall not live in vain.
(Emily Dickinson : 1830-1886)
