For Molly

Dark coated,
inquistive,
you lightly shuffled
your feet.
Wide eyed
like the child at Christmas,
gob-smacked,
at the progress of traffic.
Sure footed,
with eighty years experience.
Technology caught up on you.
Dark coated,
heavy burden,
short steps,
slack jawed in disbelief….
We buried you a week later.
