Made My Day

It was a small act of kindness,

But it lit up my day,
And, though it wasn’t a grand act,
He went out of his way.
 
He did it with a cheerful smile
And then he walked away.
I stood there watching him walk off,
Unsure of what to say.
 
A simple deed and sweetly done,
For no reason I saw,
Simple kindness out of the blue.
It left me flushed with awe.
