She looks young:
quick stride, red shirt,
blonde curls caught at the neck
and thick ponytail bouncing.
She rings the bell
at the Patient Area Centre,
walks straight in, drops
a document on a desk, returns.
Only then, as she strides back
towards me, the way she came,
I notice that her face
is tired, and not young.
