Word 2: Mosaic

Word 2:  Mosaic

People Watching
Through dirt and filth
A black wrapped window
of a wind dust struck town
Inside looking out
A vibrant of colors
Rust, Beige, Burgundy mosaic
So beautiful
So sad
Looking down with over exaggerated gestures 
Stand, Stand tall Burgundy mosaic
Find courage
Do it all
A glimpse
A moment
Gone
Such beauty unnoticed
While eyes to the ground
Lift up
See the tilted world
Change perception
Change the path
Be one with all
Be one with life
Live
Living
Life
Just a moment to look up
Just a moment to see
Just a moment to...
Fill the heart
Fill the soul
Burgundy mosaic within
Just look outside
Through dirt and filth
The black wrapped window
In the center
of a dust struck town.

Word 1: Musicians of Kinds

Word 1:  Musicians of Kinds

Sweet young musician sitting down to play
Please STOP
You're hurting my ears
I have to look the other way
So sympathetic
So hearing
So feeling
the embarressment for you
My heart hurts in sheer delight
Don't get my words wrong
I have not mentioned yet
The courage and bravery you have
Stand your ground
Always hold your head high
Don't let anyone tell you that you are wrong
A new shiny guitar
Nice padded case
Leather jacket
Good pressed clean clothes
So young
So hopefull
Walk away my legs carry me
Keep walking
An old man walks round the corner
Round beside me
I notice
I notice
Old clothes
Old case
Gently used guitar
Rugged looks
Bent walk
The stains of Time
Knowledge
Wisdom and song
Written all over his pressence
Written all over this glimpse of time
I handed him my five dollars
He looked at me confused and puzzled
He said "You haven't heard me play or sing"
I replied
"I see you
I hear your life song
it is beautiful"
Smiling I walk Away
Having heard
The most Beautiful song of the day.
