Listen to poem:

So and So

So and So

At the footbridge in a backward country,
I give a backward glance to what I know.

At the footbridge I don't need new answers -
just be grateful, so and so.

At commencement of day's new dawning,
I won't rush to prove myself...

merely be glad that I'm not starving
in this new country, so and so.

If you see me here and waving,
come and join me on the bridge.

Even if you are an enemy,
we'll hold hands, and so and so.
