Kudos to Kindness

Kudos and props

to the everyday people,

kind neighbors and strangers,

encountered each day;

those aides, maids and doers,

the help-you-get-through-ers

who find both the will and the way.

You know who I mean

‘cause you’ve seen them before:

They’ll stop what they’re doing

to open a door.

They’re smilers and greeters,

and please-take-my-seaters

(and lately our paths

seem to cross

more and more.)

 Those cup of hot tea-ers,

and coffee’s-on-me-ers

deserve all our thanks and our praise.

And it may sound outrageous

but I hope it’s contagious

and we all catch it

one of these days.
