Being good is not enough, you have to be nice too.
From the first of June, 2018, I started writing Good Morning messages in the form of poems (Please read: ‘Good Morning Message #1‘).
The last such message was: ‘Good Morning Message #80‘.
Good morning Friends,
So you are good but are you nice?
Do you try to be, with people, polite?
Does your goodness come with a price?
Are you, with them, too forthright?
With stress on ‘essentials‘ on the net,
Such courtesies are now things of the past;
No one says ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ and yet,
Everyone seems to be having a – well – ‘blast‘.
We seem to be forgetting the worth of a smile,
That comes from one to whom we say ‘please‘;
On the net it may not be considered worthwhile,
But it sure comes like a whiff of fresh breeze.
Today, lets pledge to be nice and sweet,
In addition to being right and good;
And to all, on the net or in person, we meet;
Lets exchange courtesies as we should.
In this ‘fast’ world, lets just slow down,
And bring cheers on someone’s face;
Lets replace smile where there was a frown;
Life is not all about winning a race.
Try being sunny this Sunday and everyday.
