The Extras In Our Lives Poem by William Mowell

The extras in our life
May be more than you think
That waitress down the street
She just may be your missing link

Going through life unaware
Of what those extras do for us
The toll person taking our fare
The janitor cleaning our mess

We need to pay a little more attention
To those working in the shadows
They deserve an honorable mention
Let a new friendship grow

You may find the greatest friend
In the everyday shadows of life
Take the time to befriend
You may even find a husband or wife
