Yesterday, I met a friend for breakfast, and then we took a walk through downtown and the neighborhood. We both were struck by the beauty and uniqueness of this sign that is not uncommon to any of us. So, below are thoughts that came to mind in the form of haiku:
when children are near
absorb their laughter, the joy
flowing into you
snails teach with their wise
leisure movements, taking in
beautiful backdrops
slow down your travels
do not let decades escape
catalogue moments
pause in your footsteps
regard life’s celebrations
breathe in their fragrance
