"The Meeting"

1995

One day I met a child,

She was young and wild.

Yet this little one was sweet,

Not like the sugar we eat.

She spoke of fear,

And to me it was quite clear.

I answered questions,

But without suggestions.

I could see the rain,

And I could feel the pain.

My arms reached out,

For I had no doubt.

That she was here,

And her life so near.
