Her absence

the roses bloom
side by side with weeds
her long long absence

Poignant. A lost partner? I know of absences.
I love that you smile at everyone on the street and their surprise. I do that too. Last week I blogged a story about walking up a street .. just me and a young woman, in silence side by side..as one does. Her in high heels and me in my BMT walkers. I said " shall we have a race to the top of the street?" She looked most surprised but laughed and we chatted the rest of our shared way.

That's great Joan! On New year's day this year, I posted my daily vow, a sort of new year's resolution. I will repost it in my blog for you as my response to your latest "encounter" with greatness.
