“Before you know what kindness really is you must lose things, feel the future dissolve in a moment like salt in a weakened broth.”

“only kindness that raises its head
from the crowd of the world to say
it is I you have been looking for,
and then goes with you everywhere
like a shadow or a friend.”

“Being good felt like a heavy coat, so I took it off.”
Naomi Shihab Nye

“I never did understand
why the tree was still happy
at the end. The little boy
used her until she was
nothing but a stump.
She couldn't even run away.
But the ending was always the same:
"And the tree was happy.”
Allison Rivers, Time You Let Me In: 25 Poets under 25
