Naked Bubbles
and A Box of Chocolates

Lost for a moment...

a whirlwind of scraped skies
and busy streets
How sudden!

Then

The warmth of her smile
With open arms to greet me
Casting aside the wretched nerve

My friend

Oh, how could she have known
of forces yet untold?
Memories to share and to be made
in the quiet presence
of another
were unexpected and, of course,
moving

Like the daffodils we chased.

Gathering color, dance and smile
Timed by hand
Both hers
and ours
How thoughtful
To have been given a day

of sparkling Naked Bubbles
and A Box of Chocolates
