You feel a change that's not entirely new
With the real things inside
You wonder if it's the energy
of another life ~ actually maybe it's the photo
Someone is in a photo from the past
Someone like an old neighbor
His mental challenges change
how he moves through life
The walks he takes
Make him a fixture and that's when
you find yourself wondering
Does he live in a good place?
One day he seemed to be eight years old
He waved "Bye, Uncle Tommy!"
He saw his uncle?
Was his uncle really there?
Where was he?
Who does he live with?
He's a tall black man
Who takes care of him?
The one who appeared on the day
the day the day the day the day
of marriage "that's your man" he said
He gave good energy
Where did that come from?
He gave instructions
Opening the door,
flowers, a heart with candy
Those are things we should indulge in
And after the pandemic hit
the last time I saw him
before I moved away
we passed on the sidewalk
He stepped aside with delight
Delighting in his own courtesy
At this social distancing time
Which is something that makes you feel very present
And when you say "thank you" and he seems to know
This is a good thing to happen today
Wow, that could be the best moment of your day
How is he blessed in this life?
That stranger, someone who makes me believe
A truly old soul might choose to be born
On purpose into a body
with some mental differences
He has some energy with him
He has at least one angel with him
Maybe a bunch of them
They work together
They make you believe
The heart surpasses the mind
