Quiet Conversation

It's amazing how truly loud
a quiet conversation can be
Sitting silently while other speak
is definitely not easy

Any noise above a whisper
but decidedly less than a roar
makes a mumble, mumble mumble
that you truly can't ignore

Maybe it's because we're nosy
or it's common curiosity
but it's amazing how truly loud
a quiet conversation can be

Strangers in a Crowd

Strangers in a crowd
Some are civilized
Some are loud
All together for one cause
Hear their laughter and applause

Strangers in a crowd
close companions
for a while
see them all begin
to smile
When the stage
awakens.


Strangers in a crowd
Some are civilized
Some are loud
All together for one cause
Hear their laughter and applause


Strangers in a crowd
New conversations
happen now
Experience reality
where you realize
You're in
familiar company.


Strangers in a crowd
Some are civilized
Some are loud
All together for one cause
Hear their laughter and applause
