Sunday Afternoons

Quiet Sunday Afternoons
With the balcony door open
And a cool breeze
And rest

Lunch with Friends

It's good to have friends over.
Cooking, eating, laughing and talking.
These things are important.

When a baby says Hello

A little boy in a pram said Hi to me on the street today. 
He smiled and waved as his mother moved him along. 
I looked at him and waved and we acknowledged each other. 

Two strangers. 30 years or so between us. 
And we connected with a simple Hello.

Friends in Restaurants

There's an Italian restaurant by work run by a Korean couple.
The man - thin, tall, glasses, pony tail - wears a Foreigner Jacket through winter.
One day I asked him if he was a fan and he said he was.
I told him my husband was a big fan too.
And he said, "Is your husband that old?"

Since then he smiles very broadly when I go in for lunch.
I know now that he has traveled to Cuba and India, loves rock music from the 70s and 80s and thinks the music today has "no craft".

He knows that I am Indian and from the South.
We will get to know each other a little more as time goes by.
