ride along.
we pulled up at the same time
right next to each other
i got out
his family got out
he stayed in
we looked at each other
i said hello to him
his mom said
he insists on
riding along
on every journey
and refuses
to get out of the car
until they all get home
once again
he just loves to ride.

walking through a park
on a beautiful day
looking up to the sky
and
quietly sitting way up there
was a very polite and interested audience

are quiet and solitary experiences
and then there are others
teeming with people and life
and noise and activities
of all kinds
both have such an important place and purpose.
