Bright sunny day
Sidewalks full
Families
Couples
Friends
Homeless

Humanity mingling

Can you help me get some food
The voice suddenly asked
Quiet yet very direct
There she stood
Eyes on me

Names were exchanged
An envelope was passed
I continued on

A block down the way
I glanced back
She held the opened card
Graced with a hand drawn heart
By a child of mine

She looked my way searchingly
What did she think
I hope she was granted a moment
To remember

She, Regina, is my equal
