This is for someone who died just a few days back.  I didn't know her at all.  I was a total stranger...and that is what I regret being.

I WISH I KNEW YOU

I know you not,
I know you not.
Oh, how I wish,
I had known you,
A lot.

This I found touching...and with a few words? there is much for thought here...who ARE the strangers that we dismiss daily? I WANT TO KNOW EVERYBODY....and then decide if I dismiss them...lol...

serenity,

Thanks so much.  I loved you replying back.  

Heavy is the heart
Filled are the eyes
Thanks so much
For being such a great person.

I want to know you more too.

Cheers,

A simple message, yet so full of meaning.  I find myself there a lot.  Thank you for sharing.

Beautifully written, CD.   And somehow I think she knows.........

To capture and live a moment is truly living
