I JUST WANTED ALONE TIME


A film I've long wished to see
showed peps a way out of sight.
Watching alone set me free.  
Scouts with cookies knocked my night.

A case of bad timing....unfortunately it happens too often (post delivery, phone calls, neighbor / relatives asking for help, etc). Scouts with cookies could have come earlier!! Better luck next time, CayCay ~ Regards // paul

I actually like that original last line you told me haha. It's good for me to view this written. I had not heard your rhymes because I was expecting aabb but I can see now that you did abab. Good job, Caycay

I can relate! The doorbell and phone have such a sick sense of timing (or humor).
