Felix

Eyes brush.
Movement shimmers
across the forehead,
muscles lift, cheeks like apple curves.

Face, a map of mirrors
reflects itself in greeting
cemented by years of tradition.
Hands press - tight and warm.

Inner misery barricaded
beneath a greeting. 
The flood of joy, touch, smiles!
Good morning!  Shalom! Kalemeira!

Another human being!

Felicitations!
