Chance

I've had so many moments like this, when the day is done, they're gone with it and only the memory lingers on.
Last month I was on a flight and met a wonderful African american gentleman from San Francisco area, great guy with a great sense of humor, we talked about so many things from politics to religion and I have no idea how a 5 hour flight flew by.  Sometimes I wonder why meetings like that happen, is it fate giving us opportunities..
I enjoyed this Mr. Kexby, brought back many good memories of people I met during my travels.

Thankyou Vee pleased this raises memories.From a poetic point of view I have reduced the number of words to a minimum. . . . . . .One of the great problems with poetry is not the writing but the reading . . . . ..Here I am reading slowly as in a daze,dreaming . . . . . . between the text long pauses  Perhaps fate is the procession of choices . . . .perhaps I should have used the ellipsis more  . . . . ..I went out yesterday with my son our destination of choice was closed but a second was open as a result we had a better visit meeting a stranger of my own profession,from a village I had lived and arranged to meet again.little moments that will add into time.

I did notice the minimalism but I thought perhaps you implanted the style of quick writing as you do sometimes to capture the thoughts or feelings with minimal edit.  
In this case, I actually like it and the ellipsis gives the idea that the experience was short therefore the details of the meetings were short in the memory therefore you captured what you could.

Loved this one Kexby. A rare accomplishment -- moving.

Thankyou the muses22

This is great poem. Short, but straight to the poem. I like it a lot.
