Softness
First impressions count
Each smile creates another—
One more happy heart

Playfulness
Lifting up others
Laughter’s contagious spirit—
Feeling heartfelt joy

Tenderness
Sharing contentment
Cheerful heart opens one more—
Spirit’s gentleness

I can imagine God smiling at this Haiku, knowing that you are lifting His children’s spirits.

What a beautifully uplifting haiku series, BigSkyBuckeye!
Each piece radiates warmth and positivity—”Softness” is a gentle reminder of the ripple effect of kindness, “Playfulness” perfectly captures the joy of shared laughter, and “Tenderness” feels like a heartfelt embrace.
Thank you for sharing these comforting verses; they’re a sweet balm for the soul!
Cheers, Mike
