( to Janet F )

A stranger passes
(To Janet F. )

At times it’s difficult
to trace a heart behind a face
a beauty that’s within
Just layers beneath the skin.

A person you might meet
a stranger she will greet
a kindness just to show
to a face she does not know.

Upon those lips a smile
that glistens so with style
a helping hand extends
as if we were dear friends.

Oh that we all be such
So much more a common touch
Instead of crying of your woes
be kind to anyone who goes.
