Try To Love Somebody and Make Them Happy Today

Imagine the sun is shining hot
Over a wet sandy beach
And the wind is blowing cool
As the sea rushes to your feet

Do your best to be kind
And look on the bright side
Try to love somebody 
And make them happy today

A Loving lovely poem - hope you are keeping well Arturo - its has been a while since we have commented, life is so rushed my friend, that the days and weeks have become like sausages, all strung together, and never-ending and I have missed your comments popping up. We should make someone happy everyday, such a beautiful thought. Stay safe and well Arturo. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
