Overcast

A mother overhead, bearing down with beacon eyes - my feet on her beat. The park - overcast. Hear the beat of robin feet on the muddy lawn. Stranger in park - no bark of dog nor scampering squirrel. Flood like a murky lake - the sodden path is alive with my steady sneakered tromp and the allocation of worms. 2/27/2022

I loved the ending "the allocation of worms." It brought realism in.
