DREAMS WALKING BY

 
When we walk by people
we’re walking by dreams.
 
Hopes push the wind into
trees: they shake, shake.
 
We’re fulfilled and broken
each one of us. We are ….
 
The years go by – as we
go by limos and hearses.
 
I want a job – a great wedding and
marriage and family and a long life.
 
Ask me at the right time and
I’ll tell you about my dreams.
 
Ask me at the wrong time and
you might see only my tears.

BABY  CARRIAGE

 

Coming up the street –
a couple pushing a baby carriage.
Blessed moment for me.
I could see the baby’s face.
They couldn’t – so I got the smile
in this moment of passing time.
