The Simplest Act

You never know what the future may bring. Life is full of uncompromising surprises. Challenges we face, the choices we make. Never the luck of the draw or the roll of the dice. Careful what you do, careful what you say For the simplest act, unspoken gesture, Careless whisper may hurt a friend, Then quietly push them away. Taking a step this way or that, Always affects those closest to us And the simplest apology Becomes the most difficult task of all.
