To bring Poetry Month to the end of its 2013 journey, a short and evocative bus poem. Enjoy the ride and mind the doors when exiting.


Gentlemen and ladies
Gentlemen and ladies, students, babies,
Girls and guys, hushed voices and loud cries.

Intellectuals and comedians, wise men and bohemians,
Discuss and ponder while dreamers look yonder.

Musicians muse and old friends swap news, 
Lovers smile,
The bus completes another mile
by Sharmila Goodhur
quoted from the Brookes University (Oxford) site.
