I love to guess their story, Delve deep into their minds, Look hard into their faces, See what lies beneath the lines. I see their past, their loved ones, Their homes, the books they read; Send up a thought, unconscious prayer, For what it is they need. I am a people-watcher: I glance as they go by, And duck behind my Telegraph If they should wonder why. __________________________  © Copyright, David L Rattigan 2004
