small kindnesses


small kindnesses
My small kindnesses are helping those with heavy luggage who forget they can use lifts/elevators at train stations. Also, I allow people to leave the train by not blocking them, as so many others do. Plus anyone smaller than the crowd, I make sure they can get onto a train first, and be able to put away any luggage, and find a nice seat, as I'm a big man I can discreetly block,  and so protect those less able.

    Being big, I suppose, is like always having a room with a view. Your kindnesses carry us on your shoulders for the largest view of all. Thanks for a terrific haibun, travel and all. ~ Donna

    Good day, Sir,

    My name is Ryan and I write haiku also. I am interested in sharing my work with people and I have a blog on which i write haiku regularly.

    If you would like, I would be very happy if you would share a link to my blog at http://quellesbellesparoles.blogspot.com on your site.

    Kindest regards,

    Ryan Ramsey
