Watching

Adam Shirley

I watched

A child laughing in his mothers arms.

I watched

A couple holding hands while walking through the park.

I watched

A dog running to their owner.

I am watching

The child crying in his mothers arms.

I am watching

The couple that no longer held hands.

I am watching

The owner running to their dog, that was lying on the street.

I am watching. 

I am waiting.

        I like this one. Three scenes spliced together in two very different scenarios and with two different tones. Love the closing line. So much emotion in so few lines. Well done. - Phil A.
