He was smiling cheerfully that day
Asking for alms from just anyone.
He saw us. Being a foreigner in Cotonou, Benin, Africa.
We were like Chinese or Japanese.
I would imitate a poorly blah blahs of Nihonggo.
"Ohayo gusaimasu!" (Good Morning!)
He just smiled again. I pointed my camera and snapped.
Then I showed him the picture. I think that made his day.
