The Young Man In Blue

Dealing the cards, A woman once asked, “Why are we here? Our lives quickly pass.” The table was quiet For nobody knew All speechlessly frozen, Save a young boy in blue He waited a moment, And when no one spoke He smiled and sighed As the silence he broke, “We’re here to laugh, And we’re here to cry, We’re here to learn And to wonder ‘why’ We’re here to show others The shapes of our hearts To care and to share We should love from the start The little things make our lives worth the while So remember them as you tred through the miles . . . You see everyone, it matters not why we’re here We’re given this life, full of magic and fear So live in the moment, Make the most of it all Each man makes an impact, No matter how small.” The people were stunned For his words were true But how could he have known . . . This young man in blue?
