We had breakfast together this morning
like an old married couple
we took in the coffee shop.
Scores of people we watched
pass by us and take no notice.
All around was sound and motion;
only we were still.
A businessman bumped
your shoulder with his briefcase;
we looked serenly up,
he did not look down.
Sharing a smile we brushed the leather
cares of the world off our shoulders,
and said nothing at all.
