I met a little red devil
on the NYC train. This kid transpired more life energy than most people I've ever met. You know when you see a person and they "Get it"? I was very touched by this little human and had to write about it.
~ FIRE ON A NY TRAIN~
I saw him on a NY train on my way to JFK
I couldn't stop staring
All manners swept aside
He had this fire, this energy
All the girls surround him
His theatrics, contagious, flaming
He wore red shoes, carried a spider man folder
I never even knew his name
I never even knew his name
He spoke Puerto Rican, Spanish
Loved to put on a show, moving all around, hands in the air
Caught my stare, no fear, he said Hello
He spoke English to me
Two Hi's and two good byes.
Golden brown skin
Golden brown curls in his hair
Green brown eyes shinning an old soul
Strong features and a big chiseled nose
Contagious confidence, the other kids
wanted to be surrounded by his light
I couldn't help but smile
I could see this little man's fire
Just before the last stop he looked me in the eye
& smiled as he said good bye
The school clan followed the leader side by side
Knowing he won my attention as a fan
He looked back and waved good bye again
Clever little boy, knew I caught what he had inside
I wish I knew his name
Spark, Creation, Innocence, Confidence fueled this life
This is a soul burning with deep knowing and fire
He reminded me of one of the most admired creative men I know
His face was a young innocent version ready to do Amazing things
I saw it in him and he played right up to me, as he snapped photographs of his friends on the NY train
I never even knew his name
I never even knew his name
Wise little soul, Light years ahead of most adults
I never even knew his name ...
~Cheers~

P.S. My recent New York and Hollywood Cal. trips have updates in the works. I've manifested some amazing things and people into my life recently.
