Poetry
His hand, his heart outstretched
offering welcome, friendship
to each one of us
walking the new neighborhood
the main street of the village
entering in, walking
to make this place a home
a new neighbor before us
talking, sharing with us
a bit of his story
and we, in turn,
sharing our own
a cup of cold water,
of friendship for the stranger
soon becoming one of our brothers
one of our neighbors in our midst
