Stranger

In the hazy mist of autumn's rest, Cold drawing with the sun abreast, Damp creeping like a shadow beast, The night’s cruel and cold, yet fuming jest. Footsteps, at the very least, Now break the silence, fond release, A shadowed figure, walking by, A memory, not all complete. You stop, and turn, not all sure why, Waiting for divine reply? The stranger, redolent of.. what? Memory will not comply.
