The day

started out rotten

Mary overslept

and was late for work.

Everything happed at the office contributed

to her nervous frenzy.

By the time she reached the bus stop

for her homeward trip,

her stomach was

one big knot.

As usual,

the bus was late and jammed.

She had to stand

in the aisle.

As the lurching vehicle

pulled her in all directions,

her gloom

deepened

Then she heard a voice from

up front boom.

Beautiful day,

isn't it?

Because of the crowd,

she could not see the man,

but she heard him as

he continued to

comment on

the spring scenery,

calling attention to each

approachung landmark.

This

church.

That

park.

This

cemetary.

That

firehouse.

Soon

all the passengers

were gazing out

the windows.

The man's enthusiasm was so

contagious she found

herself smiling for

the first time that day.

They reached

her stop.

Manouvring toward the door.

she got a look at their

"guide":

an older gentleman with

a beard, wearing

dark glasses and

carrying a thin

white cane.
