The Heart Of Respect Poem by Vanessa Alvarez

Respect is more than words we say,
It's how we walk another's way.
With gentle hands and open ears,
We calm their doubts, we soothe their fears.

Kindness builds the strongest ties,
Love that listens never dies.
In every heart, let grace reflect—
The quiet power of respect.

It sees the worth in every soul,
No need for rank, no need for role.
It lifts the low, it warms the cold,
And turns the timid into bold.

Kindness builds the strongest ties,
Love that listens never dies.
In every heart, let grace reflect—
The quiet power of respect.

So let us speak with thought and care,
And show the world that we are there.
For peace begins in how we live,
In every gift we choose to give.
