bankside

Bankside
Sitting and watching
Standing and staring
Waiting not aching
Dreaming not caring.


Husbands, wives
Girlfriends, boyfriends
Lone friends and old friends
Walk on by.

Families full of laughter,
Couples happy ever after
Stroll on high.

Observer of days,
Watcher of ways
Upon life I ponder, wonder and gaze.

History meets modernity,
At its heart life’s full of absurdity
But that is its beauty
For oft its humanity
That wins out of chaos
And makes sense of such pathos.
