Encouragement

Encouragement

© 2018 by P Michael Biggs

I like to encourage.

I use my thoughts

to string words together

to encourage someone.

I could say, for instance,

You’re clumsy,

and that would dis you

instead of Encourage you.

I could say, Your fat.

Now that is a downer

if there ever was one.

Instead, I want to encourage.

I want to find something to say

that elevates you,

promotes the better parts of you,

and causes a spring in your step,

a smile to bounce forth,

and a heart that leaps

simply because I found the keys

to your soul.

I hold the highest regard,

the highest trust

in those I meet.

I seek to say or write

one thought that may

do the job of encouragement.

And if I do,

I’ve fulfilled my life mission.

I am being true to my nature.

You see, when I encourage

I get encouraged to0.
