Besides all the violence,
brutality,
and cruelty of the street,
Bones sees,
and knows,
something else,
the true heart of the place.

There are the fathers
that work hard all day,
and the mothers
that love,
protect,
and look after
their children.

This is what the street
is all about.

It’s the true heart
of the place.

Bones loves his street,
and he will never leave it.

One of your most serene poems, dear Bobby. I agree. Very close to the toughness of existence, there runs a river of goodness. The motions of the hearts are sincere.

Love this one, it is so true.

Love,
Margherita
