In a world where strangers roam and strangers dwell
In a land of mystery, where stories do tell
Of encounters with those we do not know
How can we navigate, how can we grow
The stranger, a figure of unknown grace
In their eyes, we see a different face
They come from far and they come from near
Bringing with them all that we fear
But fear not, for there is a way
To deal with strangers, come what may
First, let us begin with a kind and open heart
For it is here that all relationships start
Approach with a smile, with warmth and with care
For kindness is a language that all can share
Speak softly, listen closely, show respect
For in doing so, you will gain their effect
Be curious, ask questions, seek to learn
For knowledge is power, and wisdom you will earn
Discover their story, their hopes and their dreams
For in understanding, all is not as it seems
Embrace their differences, their culture, their ways
For diversity is beauty, in a world ablaze
With hatred and fear, let us be the light
That shines bright in the darkest night
But also, be cautious, be wise and be wary
For not all strangers are honest and airy
Trust your instincts, your gut, your intuition
For protection is key in any situation
Set boundaries, be firm, do not be swayed
For your safety and well-being should never be weighed
Against the need to please, to be liked, to be kind
For in protecting yourself, peace of mind you will find
And if ever you find yourself in a bind
With a stranger who is unkind
Do not hesitate, do not delay
To seek help, to walk away
For there is strength in knowing when to let go
When to say no, when to say so
To protect yourself, your heart, your soul
From harm, from danger, from a stranger's hold
In the end, remember this, my friend
That dealing with strangers is not the end
But the beginning of a journey, a path
Of growth, of learning, of overcoming wrath
For in every stranger, there lies a story
A lesson, a message, a chance for glory
To connect, to empathize, to understand
To walk hand in hand, in a foreign land
So fear not the stranger, embrace them instead
For in doing so, you will be led
To a world of wonder, of magic, of grace
Where strangers are friends, in every face
And in dealing with strangers, you will find
A deeper understanding of all humankind
For we are all strangers in this vast universe
Searching for connection, for love, for peace.
"The reality breaks your expectations"
