Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

She Knew My Soul

I had barely met this woman
When she came running toward me with a gift.
I thought of you 
I knew you had to have it she said

It was a pendant
of the most outrageous fan dancer imaginable
possibly vintage, maybe pre-flapper stage
I loved it
completely

I was in awe
that this stranger
whom I did not know
somehow knew my soul
