[ScurryFunger]

Pale smooth unblemished skin
straight nose, line smiling
cupid's bow lips, thin.

Hair so blonde it was almost white
Blue eyes, not piercing
happy
kind
(She invited me to her house)

There was a problem with the
cupboard hinge 'Could I fix it?'
Would she care?

I didn't know how,
told her and her mother -
sorry
never went back,
Always felt
I left something there
Intangible, irretrievable.

We were 14 that year
Now, 60 days from 56th birthday
it seems it happened
last week.

Always act from the heart pardner.

What you do never leaves you.
