We chatted at
lunch – Slush on a
sunny street.

  • I love this – the connections between chat, lunch, slush, sun.

  • slush on sunny street is a great imagery..

  • Thanks, Dave and Gautami. This is one in a series of “people posts,” where I was struck by an outdoor image and then quickly associated it to a relationship dynamic, typically a lost connection.

    These are rather autobiographical, I’m afraid, in that I am often better at focusing my attention on brief and vivid moments in the realm of strangers, animals, information, and inanimate nature, while losing connection with the two-legged folk who matter to me most.

    Alas, to grow – through haiku.
