I want to write something
that will be translated
into at least
twenty languages
or create a product
that will be shipped
worldwide
or maybe paint
a picture that
will be put in a
bulletproof frame
and periodically restored
by gentle experts in white gloves
but I guess I must accept
that the most I will ever achieve
is to maybe do a little something
that someone like you loves

Your poem touched me and now I must pay it forward--some small kindness.
Thank you.

Wonderful ending to this poem of expansive dreams.
I like that the "you" in the last line is really each one of us. Thanks Ivan

I agree, reaching one soul at a time may be the best we can do. The hope is that someone also reaches us.
