bench invasion – the art of listening

2 children carry a bench together.
They step into the public space.
“Hello, we have a bench and time.
Would you like to sit for a while?”

We listen, we are present.
At the end, we all come together: the bench bearers, the people we met.
We build a long table with the benches.
With words and music (and a glass) we toast to the beauty of small encounters and life.”
