a stranger's voice

a stranger's voice

A Poem by Joshua Smit

a strangers voice,
heard softly through the wind,
a call for help, a cry,
for someone who cares...
a strangers voice,
heard softly through the wind.

a call for help, a cry,
for someone who cares
a strangers voice,
heard softly through the wind.

His only answer,
is the echoed cry.
a call for help, a cry,
for someone who cares.

he cries out once more,
his desperate plea,
but all he hears, are the echoes
of his desperate needs.

A strangers voice,
heard softly through the wind.
his only answers, the echoed cries.
a question, the answer,
the answer, a question?
does he not see,
the answer to his question,
is in his answer to the other's cries
