This is one of the first poems I wrote. It's not a masterpiece, it's very basic, naive even, but it came out of a very bleak and traumatic time of my life. It won't win any prizes but to this day its message makes it one of the most important poems I have written, to me anyway.
I know an elderly lady
At her window she sits
She's always there when I go out
watching the world and people about
She waves and I wave back
an exchange of smiles given
I exist and she does too
It's good of her to confirm I do
