Awh, dear Charles, this is such a heartwarming poem which reflects how little acts of kindness can turn a melancholic day into a magical one.. So rightly said "it's nice to be nice" Very true! If humanity understands these simple things of showing empathy and kindness, this world become such a soothing place to live in.. A beautiful combination of senryu, than-bauk and monoku you've presented here, quite unique.. My best wishes to you for the contest :)

Dear charles, Much needed words these are, in a world so cold all we can be is kind, it wouldnt hurt to lift someones day, and make someones day, when they are feeling low or down. And i agree with “ be kind its nice to be nice “ well said. Pleasure as always reading your work. Yours flow very well and will do well in the contest i hope
