Random Acts of Kindess

©️By Bernadette O’Reilly

Being small

And having lost a lot of weight

The storm winds and I were no

Longer friends

Holding onto my shopper trolley

I braved my way down the road

Reaching the junction that leads to

The local shopping centre the wind howled

Holding onto the traffic light pole

I prayed for an arm to link

Suddenly a grey haired man appeared

Took my arm and we crossed to the other

side safely

I gave him my grateful thanks

I wished good things for this person as

I always do whenever I experience random

Act of kindness of which there have been

So many

Each one lodged in my memory and

Each one very precious.
