The Boy on The Street

-0-

The entire world passes by

While she remains static

Finding relief from her reminiscences

And her morose thoughts

`

She sees a young man on his way to work

An inquisitive light in his eyes

She knows not his name

It’s but a trifling detail

`

She welcomes the anonymous exchanges

A smile and sometimes a wave

And assembles a hazy dream

Of carefree tomorrows

And hopeful todays
