And every once in a while
You come across things which make you smile
Random acts of kindness
From virtual strangers
The blooming of a little bud
After an unusually long, dry spell
The coming together of unknown people
To pull a distressed puppy out of the well
An unexpected smile and nod of understanding, telling you all will be well
The first rays of sunshine
Bursting through gloomy skies
Or the pitter patter of
An out of season rainfall
And then there’s something which really makes my day
After I’ve poured out my heart
Like spilled ink on paper
Someone from across the world
Types that he can relate.
This one’s for all of you my loves! The ones who read and take a moment out of their ever hectic schedules to drop in a kind word. You’re what keeps me going. Thank you!
