Bus-boys

Folder: 
Love and Pain

People come and go

In and out of our lives like bus-boys -

clearing the tables of our monotonous meals

in preparation for the next serving of unvaried snacks

in the lunches of our lives



Occasionally, a violin soloist

serenades the center of our hearts

and masters our memory -

marking one special evening as completely unforgettable

and leaving our minds to a neverending wonderment

and curiosity of such a beauty's whereabouts




Author's Notes/Comments: 

Some people have such a wonderful spirit within them. A goodbye to some friends in life is absolutely dreaded.
