Downtown in the summer rain, stylish girls are wearing rubber boots – yellow and paisley – with miniskirts.
On the bus, an old Chinese man in a pale linen jacket and a baseball hat that says “#1 Grampa!”
And a family, Peruvian, maybe, with wide Indian faces. The boy, six years old, I’m guessing, has a jet black bowl cut hair and a complete Batman costume.
Including a cape.
Didn’t even need photos-the words evoked every detail!
Thank you for the word snapshots. Now I’m daydreaming about back stories for these people!
Loved the verbal postcard. It’s fun to see how different people approach things on their blogs.
Just beautiful. Almost a poem. thank you.
Well, can you blame him? Capes are awesome! I suspect that the fight will be on at Halloween for the #1 costume, between Iron Man and Batman.
