Plinkety-Plink, Plink, Plink

An icicle drips, drips
    its measured drops
  Plinkety-plink, plink, plink 
    on my window, like rain

  Each drip, every drop, a paralysis of time
    Plinkety-plink, plink, plink, plink, plink, plink, plink
  Will these cursed drops never end
    ~ Will she never be mine

I've just texted Kamala Harris to ask her what color the school buses used to be... 'Cos as she famously said, "The school bus was a major player in the transportation by bus of school-age children." ~ Weird Salad
