Two weeks ago (April 1st), midday, I was walking West on Green and noticed you in the sun at a chair out front of that coffee spot with emoji for a name

You thrust up your arms to stretch your whole body—legs outstretched, back arched. I could almost feel just how rejuvenating it was from your expression

Settling back in, you looked my way and gave me such a genuine and warm smile. I smiled back

I just wanted to say that I'm still thinking about that exchange between strangers, that I'm wondering why it's such a rarity these days, and that you made my day

Say hi if you spot this :)

(you: red crop tank, denim shorts, light brown hair, big sunnies; me: all black, colored socks.)
