Encounter with Love

I was at the funeral
Where I bumped into Love
Dressed in red satin
Like an angel from above

Seeing her visiting
After my aunt's demise,
I couldn't but help
And ask with surprise,

"Churches, gardens, homes
I looked everywhere
This is such a happy accident
To find you in prayer"

Looking up at me
She added solemnly,
"My dear it is true,
Very sad and sore...
But we truly love a person,
Only when he's no more."
