An old man

sitting in a bar

drinking alone

I saw him.

The smiling eyes

moving round and round

touched me.

His furrowed face

tells the story

of life - I was thinking

I was spellbound

by him - but I can't

hide my looking.



He's so happy

He's smiling

on his face.



And suddenly

he came over and

spoke to me

I was listening - and

all the time

he had this

uncertain smile

I was thinking.



He's so happy

He's smiling

on his face
