A MEETING BY CHANCE
Hello, said the
stranger
to the passerby
Hello, replied the
passerby
to the passing
stranger
Thus the
conversation began
Between the
unknown two...
The stranger and
the passerby
Tho neither knew
why
But each was
heartened
By the words that
flowed
And each began to
like the other
More and more
Strange, thought
the passerby
Touched by the
kindness of the words
That the stranger
gave so freely
And yet so very
willingly
You see me
clearer, than folks I know
Said the passerby
to the stranger
The stranger's
answer was a smile
It met tears from
the passerby's eyes
