Just Be Nice Poem by Randy McClave

If you are ever looking at me
I will give you a smile just for free,
And if I'm feeling that brave
I'll even give you a wave.
If you're ever entering or exiting a store
For you, I will always open the door,
And if you're behind me in the grocery line
I will let you in front of me to save you time.
If you're in a hurry or in a race
I will let you have that parking space,
Out of anger I will never ever blow my car horn
Out of hatefulness that way I will not warn.
I will always give you a smile
And never will I give you any guile,
And if we bump into each other on the path
I will then give you a laugh.
In me you will not ever find any anger or dread
I never get off on the wrong side of the bed,
Once my mother gave me this free advice
It costs nothing to just be nice.
