It was the night flight from Houston.
Almost perfect visibility.
You could see the lights
from all the little Texas towns far below.
And I was sitting next to a fifty-two year old woman
who had never been on a plane before.
And her son had sent her a ticket and said:
Mom,
you've raised the kids; it's
time
you
got
on
a
plane.
She was sitting in a window seat staring out
and she kept talking about the Big Dipper and that Little Dipper and pointing;
and suddenly I realized that she thought we were in outer space
looking down at the stars.
And I said:
You
know,
I
think
those
lights
down
there
are
the
lights
from
little
towns.
