City of Human Kind
by MoonWolf
I sat today and watched your way—
Some rushed past, some chose to stay.
A man asked coins to buy his bread,
Others hurried on instead.
Men in suits with eyes down low,
Children watching grown-ups go.
Beggars searching, lives undone,
Girls laughed, a thief had run.
Crowds queuing, taxis flash,
Policemen pacing, brief eye clash.
Some walked mindful, breathing slow,
Others lonely, nowhere to go.
[Chorus]
People of all kinds appear,
One race—called human—gathered here.
Old, young, dark, light, strong, small—
And love?
I saw it in them all.
A painter bent with brush in hand,
A flute’s soft song across the stand.
The rich, the poor, the right, the wrong—
All carried in the city’s song.
Just a moment, yet a day,
A lifetime seemed to walk my way.
From city heat to country night,
I left with silence, stars, and light.
