when you slipped
a feather a wish
from between the pages
with love hoping
for a long catch-up chat
sometime soon
17 years ago & longer
patient ordinary
your upturned face
delighting in the kindness
of falling snow the fragility
of a human heart
glowed a garden written
in smiles & only tears
could have dimmed this
powerful light & I
want to tell you how no one
ever has told me that
not since the first
the only time we met
