Goodday

by Greg Asimakoupoulos

Posted: August 31, 2024

This is the signature sign-off of the late broadcaster Paul Harvey

loved the way Paul Harvey closed
his daily newscast and his prose
combining two words into one.
I can hear him now. “Goodday!”

It was his way of signing off.
Like men who give their caps a doff.
Paul’s verbal signature became
a phrase that said he cared.

Goodday invites us all to see
the good each day gives you and me
if we but take the time to find
the blessings that await.

Goodday remains though Paul is gone.
This one-word phrase (much like a song)
can be the means of sharing joy
with people that we meet.
