The Old Dining Table

It's round So that everyone has the same width of view It's round So that everyone has the same position and plight It's round So that everyone is as close as the others It's round So that everyone can take turn to speak Like the turning disc at the centre of the dining table It's round So that an unanimous conclusion is reached And a happy family is formed Like the shape of the table At a reunion dinner If not in the meeting room of an office
