Kindred

KINDRED SPIRIT

I feel a goat among sheep
An ass among social lions
When one and all discuss the heat
While I talk sodium ions.

Across the room I catch your glance
You smile, and I know why you do
You  know at once why my eyes dance
Because, inside you’re smiling too.

When points are lost and jokes fall flat
Your look commiserates with me
How sad for them you seem to say,
That some folks simply cannot  see
Those things that are so clear to us
And those of our  fraternity
It’s then my spirit soars and gloats
A Unicorn among the goats!
