My Favorite Strangers

My favorite people in this world

I do not know

For they are just kind strangers

Who ask for nothing and will receive nothing

 

Kind strangers

With gentle eyes

With genuine smiles

Speak no words

 

Strange strangers

With blurred half-forgotten faces

They brighten the day, without a thought

bringing hope to the downtrodden

 

To my favorite strangers

Thank you for my smile

I will smile with you

And hope that I am someone’s kind stranger too
