this time.

Standard

even though

it’s mid-april

and the skies

delivered snow today

i thought back to a few days ago

when just like today

i had my sandals on

and came upon

a mother and child

in the sun

taking time

to create art

with simple and happy words

‘have a nice day’

for anyone in the neighborhood

who may come by

needing this message.

“this time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.”

  1. A piece of chalk, a rock and a sidewalk was all we needed to play hopscotch on a spring day. Everyone invited, sharing and taking turns.
    And if we were lucky someone brought a box of colored chalk to make the squares ….. with new challenges for hop, skipping and jumping.
