Conversation
They walked a long, long way together,
speaking of the matters of the day,
Wondering how the stranger,
could be so unaware.
Then he spoke. Of prophets and of history.
And secrets known only to a few.
Still, neither his lineaments, nor stature,
reminded them of any long-lost friend.
Until, at last, the bread was broken. And they sat
in stunned recognition, as he disappeared.
