A Lovely Day
Actually, I couldn't say
What made this such a lovely day.
The air was chill, the clouds hung low,
Yet it was lovely --- that I know.
Perhaps it was because someone
Smiled my way and brought the sun;
Maybe it was only that
A friend stopped by for a little chat;
Or that a neighbor passing by
Called a warm and friendly "Hi!'
Possibly its special glow
Came from helping someone I know ---
Not much really --- just a hand
To let him know I understand.
Nothing happened actually,
To set this day apart for me.
Things went along the usual way ---
But, oh, it's been a lovely day!
