The Journey to Dinner
I watch them as their
day comes to a close
The continuous shuffling
The continuous shuffling
of bodies and souls
Some of them walking unaided
Some of them walking assisted
Some of them being pushed in chairs
The familiar journey to a room
Most of them won't recall from day to day
I wonder, will he or she be there
next time I visit
I've grown so fond of them all
I've grown so fond of them all
