Apparition
She wore a wide-brim
blue hat
and an ice blue coat,
skin
of similar feel and
shade.
A name I can no longer
remember,
and could never
pronounce
from a land I have never
been to.
Visits came in the
evening when
the kids had gone in
from playing
and the streets were
silent.
Everyone's early buzz
gave her
safe passage. We
loved, passing
through one another, and
she
always left, not a trace
of scent
or warmth behind, only
the brief
memories that even now fade.
