CONVERSATION WITH NONE

CONVERSATION WITH NONE

WAIT! OLD MAN, I WANT TO GO WITH YOU!
TIRED OF KEEPING TO MYSELF, I NOW WANT COMPANY
HOPE I’M NOT DISTURBING, YOU SEEMED LONELY TOO
I’LL JUST ACCOMPANY YOU TO YOUR DESTINATION, WHAT SAY?
YOU HAVE GROWN TOO OLD TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH YOUTHS?
NOT REALLY, THERE IS NO AGE OR GENDER BAR
FOR FREINDSHIP TO BLOOM ITS OWN WAY
“THERE IS NO LONELINESS
IF ONE KNOWS HOW TO INTERACT WITH NATURE,” WELL, YOU MAY SAY,
YES, BUT ARE YOU NOT NATURE?
“I SPEAK WITH THE MOON,
I’VE DISCOVERED THE LANGUAGE OF THE BIRDS TOO!”
WAIT, GRANDPA, DON’T TAKE ME TO BE A KID ONLY,
I SPEAK WITH THE STREET DOGS CARESS THE TREES ROLL ON GRASS
NOW I JUST WANTED TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE OF MY OWN SPECIES
MAY I CARESS YOUR BEARD?
IT’S OUR IN-BUILT WEAKNESS TO SEEK COMPANY!
“LIFE EATS LIFE FOR LIFE’S SAKE!
I’VE THE UNKNOWING WAITING FOR ME!”
SAID HE AND SHOOK HANDS,
“I’M SORRY BUT I HAD TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH!
KEEP YOURSELF OPEN AND ALIVE! WE’LL MEET AGAIN!”
