Frosty Interlude

~Frosty Interlude~


She ambled in the frosty woods.
Wondering, if with her imbalance
problems and her cane, if she should.
Still, she forged ahead bravely through 
slippery branches and dead grass,
Till the world tilted and she went
crashing onto her _ss!

As luck would have it, a fellow-
canes-man was there.
He greeted her and brushed the
dead leaves and frost from her
graying, full head of hair.
Stood the grateful woman up, 
and took her to his gentlemanly
lair.

Hot chocolate and cookies were
placed on the table.
He gave her a warm, Turkish towel, 
to dry her long hair, making her
serenely comfortable.

They spent that entire November 
day together!
A day she will always with sweet 
thoughts and in her heart, fondly 
cherish and remember!
