This is one of the best poems I have read in a while. I always love a good ending, whether it is in a James Michener novel or a poem.
This poem should be read aloud to anyone whose day you wish to gladden. My daughter read it a friend while they were sitting in a cafe in Paris, and then shared it with me in Ottawa on skype later that day. It brought tears and smiles both times.
And my friend, whose daughter read it aloud in Paris, passed it on to me, and I will pass it on to my grade 12 students so they too can appreciate the amazing people in our world.
