Everyone is busy going somewhere,

Or nowhere, perhaps everywhere.

I find it best just to stay here

Holding on to my life, so very dear.

I often wonder the why and the how

Or just sit back quietly and exclaim "wow"

I enjoy watching this self-same dance

Wondering when if ever, I'll get this chance.
