CROWDED STREETS

In matters of consequence
It's worthwhile to remember
Our purpose in being here
We may not have another chance to do so

This piece of paper is a friend
To take a journey within

Why did the wind
And the sea
Know it was wise to obey
And where was our compassion
When they took him away

Crowded streets
An epiphany
A last meal
A few choice words

Finding meaning
Translating the soul
Stopping and thinking
Ceding ground
