I saw her only yesterday
different in her age
older, more like her mother

Another house
just as grand
full of character
by the water still

We looked hard
staring into each others souls
via the eyes

We found ourselves
in actions, small acts
of kindness, intimacy

The relatives stared
not comprehending
looking for clues

She took over and walked
hugging my arm as we talked
showing all who cared to see

Her loveliness shown
by small acts of kindness
and of intimate care

Hi Frank,


recalls to me George Harrison's(The Beatles) "Something"

and Lord Byron's "She walks in Beauty"


She took over and walked
hugging my arm as we talked
showing all who cared to see

Thanks for reading and commenting Michael, you are very well read. I remember that old Beatles song, never read Byron though. Just something that happened recently that struck me. Isn't life beautiful?
