How Are You Doing Today?

Walking down the street.

I find it rather neat.

To simply say “hi”.

When others pass by.

Even a smile or two.

Or a how do you do.

It’s nice to know that others care.

You might even have common interests to share.

It’s often kind of neat.

Making friends that you greet.

Time is important for others.

Sisters, brothers and even mothers.

A kind and caring word.

Much needed to be heard.

Alone they may sit.

Yet you bring them a light that’s been lit.

Just knowing that you care.

Making them aware.

How important they are.

Here “or afar”.

Like a clock, time goes by.

Never live with regrets, like why.

Do what you feel in your heart.

Your off to a good start.

Always be kind to yourself everyday.

Do something special for you in all kinds of way.

A simple cup of tea.

May make you feel heavenly.

A soak in the tub.

Joining a book hub.

Shopping for a dress.

Something that brings you success.

Watch a movie or two.

It is always about you.

We may have lots of time.

Like the words on the sign.

Turn right.

Be the light.

For others and for you.

Your the best - this is true.
