Broken
Bits of glass
Remnants
of another's
piece of history
a broken bottle
on a playground
sadly cast aside
reminding us
all, nearby
to be
cautious
where
you step
meaningful
dreams
live here
let's stop,
share a
moment
everyday
And smile
celebrating life
have a puddle party
let's splash and play
while it's daylight,
All this
becomes
another
world,
At night
As all too often
we lead our lives
compartmentalized
in our private
flowing pools
our bodies
push pulled along
within the mainstream
amidst the echoes of life
are touched by this reality
together, but at what cost
as a life nearby is bled
indiscriminately, gone!
As we continue on
living despite
the loss
