- Each person
- inside
- has a
- tender heart, though some are covered
- with pride and their own self will.
- If humble any person can be kind
- touching the inside of tender hearts.

- Then again
- harsh words,
- stern glares,
- unthinking criticism's loud shout,
- or thoughtless idle words of gossip
- have ruined many simple good lives;
- hardening sensitive tender hearts.
- 5
- Our thoughts penned
- letters,
- journals,
- a personal history, a note passed
- or on a refrigerator door
- effect us just by opening
- listening, soft tender hearts.
- 7
- Simple gifts
- given
- today,
- whether for holiday observance
- or just because flowers are blooming
- symbolize righteous human love;
- touching the inside of tender hearts.
- 9
- True lovers
- show each
- other
- when they assume others will not see
- with a touch or a look or in other
- small personal ways known only to them;
- touching the inside of both tender hearts.
- 11
- Our God, a
- higher
- power
- If we can turn our lives to Him
- and have enough faith, then he
- can help us find peace in our lives
- reaching inside our tender hearts.

At times just
a word,
a smile
even a humble faltering attempt
that only speaks as a gesture
is felt by another very deeply;
touching the inside of a tender heart.

A scripture
quoted
or read
may start change in a sinful life
from hate or using other folks
into doing and caring for friends.
God's word touches the soul's tender heart.

With music,
spirit
inspired
lyrics and tones of many a great song
can help us to feel strength deep inside
where our heartstrings can be fine tuned;
to replay again within tender hearts.

Tender love
for a
young child
can help mold a life for future greatness
with a word or an act of kindness
or even just a smile of approval
to reach inside the young tender heart.

A poem has
feelings
heartfelt
by the clear eternal human soul.
Whether within the inspired writer
or in the open heart of the listener,
it touches the inside of a tender heart.
