Beckoning


The old school yard beckoned.


I’ve walked that street many times 


but never saw the place 


where my feet would take me. 


A woman sat at one 


of the picnic tables reading


On the far side of the school yard, 


children played on the swings


Hand in hand, a couple walked in with their dogs.


The old school yard beckoned.


“When a thing beckons you to explore it without 

telling you why or how, this is not a red herring; it’s a map.”
