EveryDay People

I have found that you will smile
at some who won't smile back
you'll wave to others
who won't step off track
you'll look directly at them
they'll shy from eye contact.

I have found that you will speak
to some that don't have ears
ask them how they are today
all you'll get are snears
and it's just enough to bring
a caring person down to tears.

I have found that some
are simply having a bad day
and only need a hand
to help them on their way
to being the happy soul they were
before the onset of their gray.

Seven out of ten will smile
six out of ten will wave
five will look at you straight
four will speak and often rave
three will truly appreciate
two will reach for sun to save
the one out of ten

who stands at the grave

wanting to feel alive again.
