Street fair

A few days ago when I was out with Lila on the road, we passed a (very) young man walking home from the school bus. He asked me if I was Leya Evelyn. I said yes. He then said he heard I had some great paintings in my studio. I asked him if he painted or drew. He said only a little, doodles, he really couldn’t draw, he said. I told him if he can write his name he could draw. Really! he said, drawing his name in the air. So that’s drawing, he dreamily mumbled.

I have a new career: street teacher. That would be a good gig!
