Strangers I Know

These strangers I feel I know 
These people I overhear 
With whom I exchange a few words 
A smile 
A glance 
Share moments 
These people next to me 
Something about this place rings us here as we are 
Different as we are 
Tied 
Human kind 
Zambian 
Linked by One 
We are all here 
Different kinds 
Searching for our own happiness 
Separate lives 
Chance encounters 
Moments of togetherness 
At the place we all love 
Young and old 
Women and men 
Differences cast away 
We are connected 
By this place 
By Zambia
