Sing Like There's No Tommorrow

I drove over to the grocery store at dusk the other day. As I stopped at King and Stratchen, I saw a older gentleman at the corner. He was swaying a bit and singing. He was really into it. So I turned off my music and rolled down the window. He was singing a love song that I didn't know. It was beyond lovely. He must have seen my window open because he shuffled down the sidewalk, faced me and kept on singing. He wasn't looking for money. I was so moved and then the light turned. I drove away and cried...a happy cry.
