near the roadside
a weed covered fence
and old dead leaves
no warbling blackbird sings
smell the burning bond fires
the train passes
screeching iron on iron
the earth shakes
then silence fills the air
crashing waves of silence
old man and woman
passing in an autumn day
each lost in thought
memories of the days gone by
no thoughts for tomorrow
sidewalk cafe
drinking bitter espresso
here – a crying babe
there – shadows dance in the street
McCartney sings “Let it be”

Beautiful words, so true to life, but we seldom stop and think about things like this, it told the whole story with very few words.
Thanks will be back to read more of your posts. Have a nice day.
