Why do people run?

Why do people run?

A Poem by S. S. Allen

Droplets drumming a rhythm on my head.
It was a painted canvas of lightning and grey,
With folk's frantic feet and shooting parasols;
all except for me, was running away.
Excuse my blithe, as everyone took flight.
I stood there catching raindrops on my tongue.
A mixture of chaos and beauty.
Don't you ever wonder why people run?

I Loved this!
It was so profound and beautiful at the same time!
I loved the part, "A mixture of chaos and beauty.
Don't you ever wonder why people run?"
It made me think and wonder why people do run and they don't stop to admire the beauty around them!
Very nice poem!
Keep up the incredible work!

Your friend,
