it was a start
she had been suffering a great loss
we suggested a new hairdo
someone put daisies in her hair
she looked a bit more flushed
silence surrounded her
we next handed her calla lilies
they were yellow like the sun
she stroked them as if they were an old friend
It was a start
giving us a bit of hope
