she moved
from person to person
a smile hidden
on her face
there were some
that were touchstones
"how's it going?
did you get coffee?"
there were some
that got quick questions
as if they were a specific
google person
who she could ask
in an instant
saving an email
and there were two
that she had specific gifts
for
one, a royal colored wallet
to give to the richly talented
role model
and a picture of royalty
for the one she knew to be
in mourning still for the queen
of nearly everything
enriched by the observations
of others
made her realize just where
she was
was the place she needed to be
making it ever more difficult
to think of leaving
and the troubles that laid ahead
(dread)
