hearing her panic – v3

The call was unexpected
because I had forgotten;
The issue deferred
but such was the calendar

Hearing her panic
a cry for assistance,
Changing my plans
to be of service

To assuage her nerves
to dissipate her anxiety;
Asking for help
to smooth their path

Graciously accepting
that which was offered,
Certain this is harder
than they first imagined,
than either of them thought.
