I just think about the people you casually meet, I have communicated with peopole on triond that I would love to meet in person.

When we met we shook hands, we were cordial with one another.

I meant to get to know you a little better.

That’s what I was thinking when I read the letter.

If it wasn’t for that bump, shoulder to shoulder,

and all of my 14 muscles I used to smile.

Pardon me, no excuse me, it was a friendly encounter.

We talked, we chatted for hours.

But in reality it was just for a little while.

So it saddened me that day.

When I received a letter, from your son saying you had suddenly passed away.

Good-by my new friend.

Thank you for that accidental meeting way back when.

    It’s funny how we can have a chance meeting with someone and hit it off so well that it feels like we’ve known them forever.

    Brief encounters and lost chances…
