he though today is a day as good as any
to make peace with yourself
and get going wherever you are going
with high hopes you will land on your feet
the train rider has as always a newspaper
in hands, but he does not read it today
while waiting for the metro train
he just looks at strangers
some of them, like him, must come at the station
everyday of the week, but he cannot recognize any
although they do look vaguely familiar
since they're connected by a common goal
going somewhere, fast
he'd go anywhere where the sun is warm
and the mind is fresh ... while the metro music
sounds like many small steps
then they all get sucked
into a tunnel that only seems dark
by the noise and the roar, the train they got
will take them somewhere
whichever direction they take
they will get a chance to stand
with their backs straight, tall on their feet
possibly interact, while time ticks - fast.
but he'll step out of the train today
at a station out of the way to taste the passing of time
to look perhaps for simple things like water drops,
or the shape of clouds when the sun hides;
he thought of these and he got out in the rain,
under the anonymity of many umbrellas
he could sense the joy
the rain had brought to the city today.
he though today may be a day as good as any
to make peace with yourself
and get going wherever you are going
with high hopes you will land on your feet

efforts. We recently stayed at a Best Western serving free breakfast. The
