I LISTENED

Who is that man sitting so all alone ?
No longer a wife and his kids have flown
Looks like he could do with a chat 
Will take it upon myself to do just that 

I listen to his life with a smile and a nod
One day nearer he says meeting with God
This man has led such an interesting life
I was right about his kids and his wife 

Time soon went I bid this man goodbye 
Interesting life I said but not saying why
He said tomorrow it's his turn to die 
Wished him well was my only reply
