life on the sidewalk


life on the sidewalk
walking every day
where I am going
doesn't matter to me
I just keep on walking
going my own way
there's so many places
I have yet to see

life on the sidewalk
rain or shine
something happens
when I'm out here
almost every day
I take the time
sometimes it's cloudy
sometimes it's clear

          one foot in front of the other
          holes in both my shoes
          look and you will discover
          there's so much you can do

life on the sidewalk
listen to birds
warble and whistle
it floats through the air
can you be peaceful
not one bit disturbed
stroll through the afternoon
walk like you don't have a care

life on the sidewalk
heading for home
look at the squirrels
like they are your friends
walking in silence
kicking a stone
you know that tomorrow
you'll be out here again
