When I go running

I notice the trees.

I see a man who befriends the squirrels

I hear my feet fall into a rhythm

I try to smile while I passby. Most have airpods or shades and don't care to reply

I met one person doing the same, it was a good laugh as we kept running by lol.

He even said "see you next time" as he was on his last lap, kind old man.

Being strangers with eachother is temporary

I appreciate the strangers that smile at me

I'm now the stranger smiling at you
