My Neighbor Across The Street

She had that vibration…

that made cats want to sit in her lap.

When she floated through her house,

the walls shimmered and the floors shined.

No one could put their finger on what it was,

but at her dinner parties, no one ever added salt;

they never added pepper; the flavors were

just what they were supposed to be…

just like the conversation that sailed over the table

making the water glasses tinkle with their laughter.

Some said it was a kind of spell she learned,

the magic of warmth and listening,

caring, sharing and reaching out.

There was always some envy,

or a small scandal that surrounded her,

but she never seemed to take that in……
