Mary Stoots. A Serendipitous Friend opus 145
| 17 July 2023 1945 Hours | | Friendship, Disability |
She is in a wheelchair, but she exudes confidence, ability,
And the possibility that she might levitate at any moment.
I met her in Reynoldsburg, Ohio, at the Historical Society,
When I donated the Ohio Tartan Stone to be housed in their facility.
We went to a lunch at a local tasty-menued establishment,
The beginning of our verbal interactions about many local subjects.
Mary has a wry sense of humor, flavored with wisdom,
And an understanding of the situation.
Compiling Newsletters, outreach, hosting,
And organizing history field trips,
She is confident and authoritative-sounding
With her no-nonsense voice.
When I feel a need to be in Mary's aura of strength,
I dial Ohio and enjoy a flowing conversation
To share my joy and outlook on life.
