Chance Meeting

At first I did not recognize him
All bundled up like an Eskimo
He looked like a kid
His class graduated last June
But he did not
He still has that boyish face
and that sweet innocent smile
Please God-watch over him

I like this one a lot earthly, reminds me of old friends long lost to the sands of time. We lost touch, but I still think of them from time time, hoping the best for them. Great sentimental write, got me thinking about some friends that hadnt visiting my mind in quite some time. ~Spence

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
