I remember one morning

I sat on the porch and played with my dolls

Gritty sand of the ground

In my teeth

Under my nails

I remember looking up

There was a man walking down the road

Blood stains his yellow shirt

His face

His hands

I remember his eyes

They stared at me for a second

They were green

Full of the unknown

Full of uncertainty 

He kept walking down the road

And I never saw him again
