Weekly Writing Challenge: Day Two
Lunch – at long last!
I find a spare bench – its my usual spot
Not too far, yet out of view from the shop
My lunch box comes out,
and soon my sandwich is done
As I dispose of remains the cleaning lady stops
Emptying the bin she spies my lunch box
looking my way she flashes a grin
“Quiet today” she nods in relief,
“much better that way.”
“That’s Tuesdays tho’ ain’t it?” I smile in reply
“A bit of calm, very nice”
“See you later!” She leaves, trolley in tow
Unnoticed, it seems, by anyone else
It is funny, I think, as I sit here alone
How invisible we are
once Meadowhall opens its doors
Ah well.
Times up for now – my box goes away
That’s that then, back to the shop for today!
