He knew me


 He knew all about me 

John Clare Stokes


Yesterday there we sat

Nearly an hour

With the mother

Who birthed me

We talked of the

Same familiar things

As before


Later that evening

The daughter called

Mom said

Some man in a green

Shirt came to sit

Upon her bed


He talked of familiar things

She wondered how he knew.
