A SMILE (a kyrielle)

my gratitudes to The NWCU and their Wednesday wake-up call for making me think.  and while I don't normally think of my works as making my world a better place, opportunities abound to make a stranger smile and in turn my world is better.
 
 
See that lady stooped down there?
She dropped her, dime and do I care?
She’s old, of trembling finger’d style;
I’ll change my world one smile by smile.

That little old man in shuffle step?
His cup is empty of the pep.
I’ll run or hold the door awhile
And change my world one smile by smile.

A tiny act of kindness in
This harried world can get a grin;
And no man is a lonely isle;
Let’s change our world one smile by smile.
