She remembered me.
We had met a few days earlier by
The mailboxes in our condo
Development.
Now we stood outside Staples
Waiting for the store to open.
As we chatted I learned her
Home life was in a desperate
State.
I listened.
I sympathized.
I asked, "Can I pray with you?"
And standing by the curb I put my
Arm around the burdened down
Lady and asked God to give her
Wisdom and peace of mind.
Since it was too cold to wait any
Longer, we parted ways.
But now that I know where she
Lives, I will make sure our
Paths cross again.
