{Prompt: Imagine that you are watching someone and they do not know you're watching. Let the description tell the story or make the point.}
A woman,
age twenty-three,
sits down on a squeaky bench.She pulls out a sandwich,
folds a napkin on her lap,
and opens the plastic bag.The wind picks up,
blowing a soft tune through her hairUntil the sound grazes her eardrums.
She stops in her tracks, the sandwich inches away from her face
But then, she suddenly pulls back.
The hand which she held her sandwich with
falls down to her lap
though her grip is still tightas if it may blow away with the wind.
Her soft little brown eyes and eyelashes
flutter close.She cups a hand around her ear, listening to the notes
the wind begins to play.
Violins,
Cellos,
Harps,
even a Piano.The conductor cloud turns the pages as it sweeps
by the velvet
skyA flute flutters in her ear, causing her eyes to awaken
Until they meet a fine bird, perched on her delicate finger
A bright bluejay
One with a chest puffed outHer lips form into a small smile,
Her eyes gleaming with joy,Once again she closes her eyes and listens
Listens to the symphony of wind.Soon enough,
the Bluejay's wind pipes play, similar to the tune of the fluteThe woman of twenty-three joins in as well
Humming the same tuneAnd soon enough, as the wind picks up again
then both join the symphony, in tune.
