The music played,her memory stirred
Of time gone by when she was seen
Now she was invisible to most around
She still felt like that young girl
Listening to Good Vibrations with life ahead.
Now the world didn't see her youth,
Didn't know she'd been a mum
Weren't aware of her life
Just saw her wondering past
and looked when she talked to her dog.
But to her there was still life
Wrinkles sure,sagging skin where once firm
But her brain still worked if not better than before
Her inner smile radiated from within
And the people passed and smiled right back
And when they did, the old lady disappeared
And warmth and light appeared instead
They felt better for a moment in their lives
without being able to say why
Except for a whisper in the wind
