We meet people
Wherever we go
Airports, planes
Cruises, Worldwide destinations
Standing in line
Strike up a conversation
With someone in front
Or behind you
That's how you turn
Strangers into friends
I always manage
To find someone
To speak with
Or perhaps
They find me
Example:
We met a family
In the airport on
The way to a cruise ship
We realized
They spoke Russian
And were also from
Belarus
When speaking
With them we
Realized we were
More or less
From the same city
Streets close by
In Slutsk, Belarus USSR
I mean
Come on
What are the chances?
A lot bigger
Than most think
2nd example:
On the cruise
At dinner we met
A nice family
From Ecuador
With whom we had very
Pleasant conversations with
Never say never
I've met people 9 years ago
On vacations
And I'm still in touch with
All these years later
You can be half way
Around the world
Or on line in a store
Keep your mind
And heart open
Because there's
Always a way
To turn
Perfect strangers
Into
Lifelong friends
