#41 - A poem for if you knew this is the last time...

In this episode, I read "If You Knew" by Ellen Bass. Ellen asks in this heartfelt poem about what if the time you meet someone is the very last not because you do not meet them again but because it is a few moments or days before they die. You do not know, but what if you knew? Complete strangers. Your one tiny opportunity to be kind and warm. It's a simple poem and it caught in my throat when I read it because of a related and strong memory I have. So I broke my streak of Indian poets to read this one and share my story. I hope you like it .
