Not nearly as poetic as your encounter but...I was having a really bad day today...stuck in traffic for two solid hours, visited a 'home' that will leave me with horror images forever and made me want to take every last resident home with me NOW...and so on and so forth.Anyways, I stepped outside the office to calm down after a particularly offensive letter from a fellow 'professional' and we are lucky enough to have a small brook by the end of the car park. I watched the ducks and their little duckies splashing about, a very gentle spring rain with all the attendant fresh smells was falling and somewhere a blackbird was giving it's all in song....and, just for a moment or two I was granted a rare serenity, a small message of reassurance that all was well with this small corner of the world, if I only had sense enough to notice.
