Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw you there today Your face your eyes Your walk your step I gasped and said be still my heart I thought I saw you glance at me I wanted so To run to you Longed to throw myself into your arms Thought it was you I saw today AP: 1st place 2020 Posted on January 17, 2019

You did see him today. I think we are visited this way. Many people have told similar stories. It happened to me before.

More than a trace of Emily Dickinson in this one, which means it's a FAVE for me! :) gw

I think they do leave a footprint. For a moment you see that loved one.

They do visit; beautifully done.

Yes they trick the mind but the soul knows better. They are mini visits from the other side.

I have seen this often, and it is startling indeed. My friends have experienced this also; thank you for making this "normal" in the form of a fantastic poem, Line.
