Epiphany

Without hardly even thinking I pushed the button on the box." ----------------------------------------------------------------- --------------- And now continuing: "What do you want?" the box asked. "Would you like your lawn mowed sir?" I asked. No response. I waited for a few minutes. Still no response. This was unusual. And then I heard someone coming to the door. It opened. A rather young man, neat and trimmed with newer clothes on stepped outside. He looked at me. I looked back. He looked around his yard. He looked at me again.

I pointed down the street at a few of my customers. "Ok, come back tommorrow and I will probably have you start." With that he disappeared back inside. I stood there dumbfounded. As the blood that had rushed to my ears started to ease away, I started to hear the birds chirping. A wind was blowing gently and it felt good against my face. The smell of rain was getting stronger and the tops of the trees were starting to move like a cradle. As I turned my shoe twisting on the concrete made a clear sound.
