She will not forget
the wondrous man's gaze
She will not forget
the words he whispered in her ear sitting
on a white bench in the garden of her soul
Such words remain forever etched
She will not forget
the magic man's visit
reminding her of time's confusion
A man who knows his end
will not wait a second
Such words remain forever etched
A familiar smile
a hidden gaze under his hat
He came for her alone
to enlighten her soul
to awaken her from slumber
He put knowing in her palm
and his eyes said
I am all and nothing at all
I am all and nothing at all
And she will etch his words
on an old tree trunk
and plant a flower there
in gratitude
She will not forget
the moment of grace
when she laughed of simplicity
filled by emptiness
All and nothing at all
All and nothing at all
