Stranger

was lovely last Christmas

hugs amid a snow storm

face so bright and caring

mind in such good form

 

sharp, as bright as a pin

enjoying tinsel and pies,

no hint of grief to come,

warmth yet in grey eyes

not sure of time or day,

struggled finding words,

shopping, lost her way

 

I know his face, where...?

why cant I remember?
