Rays of light make their way through the bars of the blinds struggling to fill the room with their glow. They are mostly kept at bay, but a few dimly illuminate the spacious cavern of the room.
The soft melody of piano keys tickled by a knowing master coupled with the soft sounds a distant river echo calmly off the walls, creating an illusion of being at a concert in a forest.
I close my eyes and try to make the world stop.
About that time, the door flies open and a boisterous group of youth bound through the door with a miss mash of their adventures of the last forty five minutes.
I smile and nod at each new story. I know that I am honored to be the recipient of each one, and yet inwardly I sigh and my eyes drift over to the window where rays of light make their way through the bars of the blinds.
