Ordinary People

Ordinary people i meet every day
But then what is ordinary the wise one does  say
Since everyone is talented as we are told
And people born as mortals and destined to grow old
In the pub or the shopping complex or the street
Ordinary people everyday i do meet
Ordinary people as ordinary as me
Yet the most extraordinary in some ways ordinary
With what i am about to say many may disagree
You look for the greatness in the ordinary and greatness you do see
Those known as the  ordinary do not under-rate
Since they are an asset to Country and State
The ordinary people i meet every day
Are quite extraordinary in their own way.
