One bleak night in March 2008, Lauren, aged only 21, crashed her car into a tree, and died, we weren't close friends, but any lonely person near her always received a warm "hello" and a friendly chat.
I wrote the following about her, and now feel able
Widest of flowers in the glade of my thought,
I'll never forget you and all that you brought -
Wherever I go, so your loveliness will -
To melt through the moments more hauntingly still...
