A Gift



A Gift

A stranger shows up late one eve,
Softspoken, fair, polite.
Their uttered words seem crafted
To bestow a little light.

With kindness then, this stranger does
Greet everyone they meet,
We all enjoy the words employed,
This stranger's special treat.

Suspicions rise, Who is this then?
Who fills our place with kindness?
There is no human such as this!
They're trying to beguile us!

Their motives then, we must explore
To weigh and judge and sift.
When all that kindness we enjoyed,
Was simply just a gift.
