[bodytext] => A little boy sits alone Along a jagged curb, He wonders why it’s been so long Since his mother has been gone. He ponders the meaning of the rose That’s wilted and forgotten. There are so many over there But this one’s singled out. Then he sees a single bird Perching on the roof He wonders why it’s sitting there, Picking at its food. Finally his eyes have found A little tiny ant, Now this one seems to be Far behind the marching group That continues on ahead. And as this little boy sits alone He wonders why he’s there, Why he is seeing all these objects Being singled out. Then a thought comes to his head He has confirmed it once again The only reason he’s alone Is no one sees the ghosts.
