Early morning in a garden





A weed pulled
a branch pruned.
 
Watching,
working,
tending.
 
Ignored
by others in the garden.
 
A woman weeps
unaware that she is
observed.
 
But he sees and
waits.
 
Waiting for the
right moment
the time
to speak.
 
When a word
will break into her grief.
 
No everyday
word
a unique word...
 
"Mary"
