Standing In the Crowd

Standing in the crowd,
busy and alive
as it seemed to be,
with huzzling sounds
of the city.

But I only stood silently
as I watched
the people murmuring-
Every word has
a different meaning;
Every mind holds
a distinct theory.

Everyone has his mind
on everything,
they grow wild
by heaps and leaps,
as if they'll never 
get enough of it.

Thank you!Actually I am still learning as much as I can to compose my poems. This site has helped me so much, I get to read others' work and improve myself through them :)
