Investment Advice

Today there were a million “Please,”

and a million and one said, “Thank you.”

A million “Excuse me,” a million 

and one, “No problem.”  Two million 

horns not honked when someone

forgot to hit the turn signal, three 

million fingers not flipped, four 

million curse words not uttered.

“I’m sorry” five million times said,

“That’s alright,” replied five million

and one times.  It was a start and 

the news didn’t report any of this.

They couldn’t let it be known 

there’s goodness in the world.

Tomorrow, the stock in kindness 

will be on the rise, investment cost – 

the golden rule remembered.

Uncountable dividends to follow.
