#25. His Name Is Sid

She tells me she likes to get to know
the people who make her life run smoothly,
especially during these days of coronavirus.
There's the mailman who sometimes
wears a cape for extra swag, 
does competitive scrap-booking
and enters it at the State Fair.
Then there's her grocery delivery lady,
Heidi, single mom to a teenage son,
Halley at the pharmacy and Jack,
Aussie who moved here with his wife
to work at the local cannabis dispensary.
These folks help her keep things together,
make sure she's still comfortable inside her life.

Me thinks she is one smart woman. Getting to know others is also being known by them. A known entity is not easily dismissed. Good write, Marianne...
