Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Poet Light Verse

Notes About The Poem

Entered in Skat A's Easy Poetry Contest 17.05.11 as this was penned in the middle of the night when I reached for the pen to write down some other poetic thought and this just poured out of me fully complete, in hind sight probably the night after this event took place (years ago). 

A Rule For the Road

Shaking she was,
that cute bike courier chick,
in a lift at the registry
flipping a trip.
I could see she was in
adrenaline's grip.
Nearly run over,
through no fault of her own;
to this sweet rookie
the ropes must be shown.
My sarcastic advice
to the packed Otis delight:

"Silly girl,
the big guy
IS ALWAYS
in the right!"

Freddie Robinson Jr. February 9, 2017 at 1:49 PM Very funny, Maureen. LOL! ... packed Otis delight. Such keen bites of sarcasm, which I was riding that elevator w/you when you uttered that memorable line. Wonderful poetry. Love and hugs to you.
