Caren Krutsinger Poet Rhyme

I Do the Best I Can To Uplift Others

I am doing the best I can today
I’m kind in spite of people’s dourness
Smiling no matter what, merry and gay
Uplifting strangers and their sourness

Secret weapon is my gorgeous smile
A happy hello cherry and merry
I walk six blocks or maybe a mile
Then I reach my neighbor old man Harry

I know the stories of those in my town
Tended to many in clinic you see
I give them a smile even when they frown
For they are all dear and lovely to me

It brings me up and makes me feel kind
It refreshes my heart, rejuvenates my mind.

L Milton Hankins October 12, 2021 at 9:02 AM A very sweet sonnet, Caren. I think you have described yourself perfectly! Caren Krutsinger October 12, 2021 at 10:30 AM Thankyou Hank. This is my sweet side; my nasty side is eating people's livers in a fantasy world.

Jenna Logan October 12, 2021 at 4:54 AM It's the way we should be, but too many people only care about being lifted, instead of giving to others. Caren Krutsinger October 12, 2021 at 10:30 AM I have to tell you Jenna this is the only thing that gives me enthusiasm and I have gobs of it.
