Meeting

Around a table sits
People from different mind sets
Places unseen in the eyes of another
In dreams

Dates pass away
Crumbled calendar
Calling out obligations
Like numbers and letters in a Bingo game

Learn to read
Learn to write
Learn to say please, thank you, good night

Manners
Voted on by committee
The world runs on the back of communities

Agenda approved and adjourned
