The World Moved On

Some one stole his harp strings and played a sad song.
It was terribly out of key but the people sang along..
He wanted desperately to right his wrong but
the people soon forgot and the world moved on..

Simple and yet oddly profound for me. I really like this one, Nancy

thank you Andrea. It was just a metaphor about the injustice that's out there. Glad it resonated. I am a simple writer but my muse isn't so simple. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Nancy
