THE WRITER

Some, pass through our life like a flash of light;
barely an encounter within our aura.

Others, are embroidered into the fabric
that warms us on our journey.

Then there is you, an indelible mark upon my being.
An unexpected consequence of stepping out of my environment.

Your fugacious presence has been a gift.
This is a moment I will experience through paper and pen;

A page in my book that will be re-read,
many times, for years to come.
