Neighbor

By Thomas Kirschner Submitted to Corner Post

Hello my friend

It’s a beautiful day today

I’m glad that you have joined us

I hope you’re here to stay

I’m a real live person

I’m flesh and blood

I’m a victim of fires

I survived a flood

I work all week

On Sunday I pray

If you question my motives

You’ll hear what I say

This life is too short

To quibble and fight

Enjoy the wonders

Every day and every night

Oh it’s a beautiful day

In the neighborhood

It’s butterflies and rainbows

And unicorn wood

I love the medieval

Shiny armor and saber

I love you like myself

Won’t you be my neighbor
