Small stone: January 2, 2012


Nearly stumbling
his left leg twisted inward,
compassion falling into sympathy
into pathos as he walks toward me.

Laughing, he is laughing.
His little daughter is laughing.
His beautiful young wife is laughing.

Lost in misunderstanding,
I nearly stumble, then smile.
