By Matt M., Leicester, MA

   The stranger lurks about each day

And no one knows his name.



His clothes are dark; his hat down low

Each day he looks the same.



The people talk and gossip

Of the harm that he might do.



Perhaps he's only searching

For a friend to find anew.



We judge too quickly throughout life

Labelling people at a glance.



Maybe we would be happier

Giving a stranger a second chance.
