Saturday morning at Starbucks

Father and baby reading the newspaper
Is mother at home sleeping, luxuriating in silence and idleness?

A girl glides in on rollerblades with natural and yet amazing grace.

A tall man in white, white hat, white shirt, contrasting with his sun darkened skin waits to get his caramel frappachino.

A woman in purple sneezes and is blessed by the man making her latte.

Father and son with identical large blue eyes discuss with wonder a baby who can speak Spanish and never cries.

Father with baby gives up reading and is seduced into blowing raspberries on the baby's belly.

Outside the sun shines brightly in its late May way, the wind blows, it's just another beautiful day.
