A Bunch Of Flowers

Hustled, prodded and packed
Like a flock of sheep
Into the long, narrow aisle of a jetliner
They queue up to their assigned seats
Fighting time, grime and excess baggage
All sense of this mad rush
Will soon be washed down with immodest sips of beer,
All explanations brushed aside-
Like the smooth-scented paper napkins
Dispensed to preserve what little there is left
Of human company.
Suddenly in the midst of it all,
Somebody soundlessly wafts into the picture
In a rain of glances.
Hugging a bunch of flowers to her bosom,
She glides down the aisle
Coolly conscious of the confusion around her
Sheltered in the eye of a storm
She slips in and out of the crowd
Expertly shielding her prized possession
From the relentless onslaught of pressing bodies:
Ah, somewhere somebody is waiting. Somebody out of sync
With metallic blasts of jet-rock. Somebody who cares.

marvelous, Sonju. The Bible says that in the last days of this system, the "love" of the greater number will cool off!
your poem dipicts those feelings perfectly.
Well written, easy to understand and see in a person's "Mind's Eye!" Among all those passengers, surely there is someone that cares, Just one!
Really enjoyed it, Sonju, you are a crafter of words, and should write more and more.
