Connection

The woman with the chic haircut,
Large diamond on her manicured finger,
Stylish flats, cute leggings and blouse
Was reclining on a log
When multiple rambunctious children
Startled her upright.

Expecting annoyance, even sotto voce cursing,
I was surprised to hear a soft voice say to the children,
You can see two otters if you look over there.

I was not expecting a well-heeled stranger
To promote a love of the outdoors.
But that momentary connection made my day.
