While waiting for the bus, a woman
Started to converse.
She sensed I wasn't in the mood
But then, what made it worse
Was when she mentioned that she came
From having radiation.
I couldn't just ignore her, having
That as information.
We both wore baseball caps, but then
She pulled hers off to show
Me that the little hair upon her head
Had started, now, to grow.
Our conversation on the bus
Touched down on this and that -
The neighborhood, the weather, food;
We had a pleasant chat.
A tidbit we discovered was
Our ages were the same.
Her stop came first - we said goodbye
With no exchange of name.
