30 minute lunch

Are you gazing at the same fat moon tonight? So easy on the eyes. Can you feel me friend? Just Love.

 

 

 

Smell of new fresh mulch

it stings the nose

verry, verry quite and peaceful

noone was around

flowers ( I think Tulips) were in bloom

starting to come up from the ground

the only actions taking place

a few cars driving away

sunny and warm-

good feelings

empty

an old man

sitting alone

in a car

in the handicap

light breeze- golden

dried up leaves brush together

with the wind causing a cackling sound

saw some faces through the glass

A love walks out of schlegel building

hands filled with bags of bottles

the old man tips his old man hat

the door is opened for her

they kiss, drive away

a couple of yellow flowers spring from dirt

bells are chiming

benches unoccupied and noone is around

you can hear faint noises of construction in the distance.

 

(c)2009 will bates

This is the best of yours I have read so far, great writing (couple of misspelled things in the beginning), but I could see this one being submitted to a magazine.

I love this, Will (sort of recalls my Poster on the Wall).
Depending on which way the wind is blowing, a 30-minute lunch
can last an instant or a lifetime. -gene.
