There are people
Who think they matter more
Because they are rich
Or they are known
Because they have achieved
Once made a headline
Stood in the spotlight
For but a moment
Have ancestors
Know a star
And mattering
Expect more
Want attention
Expect attention
To be noticed
Are so self absorbed

Then there are people
Who just pass us by
Unnoticed
And happy so
Shun attention
Leaving little drops of grace
Along their way
Easy to sit with
Listen long
Slow with advice
Found solitary on the path
Content
In their own company
And constant
Not tossed
By opinion
Not turned
By life

With which would you
Rather be?
