It was just another morning, quiet and plain,
As the sun rose slowly after a night of rain.
I walked a familiar path, steps soft and sure,
Thinking nothing awaited but routine and more.
But there, on the edge of dawn’s gentle light,
A stranger stood, like a silhouette in flight.
Eyes full of stories, words yet unsaid,
A spark of something in the air as we met.
No grand introductions, no long exchange,
Just a moment, a glance, and life rearranged.
A shared smile, brief as a breath in the wind,
But in that instant, something within me thinned.
Like pages turning in a long-lost book,
A door opened wide, just from one look.
The stranger spoke truths I didn’t yet know,
Planted seeds of change that started to grow.
In that fleeting encounter, my world became new,
A shift in perspective, a broader view.
And as I continued, I felt something strange—
The weight of the past had begun to change.
A stranger that morning, now part of my soul,
Helping me see life in ways untold.
Sometimes it’s a moment that alters your way,
A stranger’s brief presence to brighten your day.
And though they’re long gone, I carry the light,
Of that one morning, that stranger, who set my path right.
