A Sam Scott poem

Listen to poem:
Hi.
Have we met before?
Your smile, it just reminds me
Of some friends in Singapore
Or maybe it was Europe..
As we travelled there by rail
A skiing trip perhaps
Or hike on forest trail?
There's something quite familiar..
So sorry if I stare.
The way you laugh, so lovely
Like no thing can quite compare
Ah.. I'll have it in a minute
All I really need is time
To delve into my memories
Find that reason for this rhyme
But then it suddenly dawns upon
My fumbling failing mind..
We've never met, it's simply that
I recognise my kind
A soul that shares an outlook
A spirit that will croon
The song I have been longing for;
That sympathetic tune
Our paths they crossed and maybe
Not by accident at all
A greater plan unfolding
Like some writing on a wall
You bring a kind of peace to me
It's tricky to explain
Like shelter in a blizzard
A leafy canopy in rain
I can only say I'm grateful
That our paths have crossed this way
Would you walk a little further?
As I'd like if you could stay :)
