Sand Box Insanity

Lifting her mask
she whispered

"I'll show you mine
                      .....if you show me yours"

Very funny, John! In all of this continuing chaos and division you brought us together with a laugh! Very wise! Congrats and kudos on your POTD!

It becomes an increasingly bizarre game of "MASK ON" - "MASK OFF".

Oh my !! Mask or no Mask, things haven't changed. Maybe she was talking about showing her smile. :) Maybe not. Soft giggle. This is cute, clever and creative. Congratulations John, on Poem of the Week. :) Brandy

AH humour, that subtle feather that knocks the mind out of a rut and teases the lips into a smile.

good question Susan. When we were kids we had a "girl" who batted in the cleanup spot and got picked for the team before most of us guys.....maybe as kids we were way ahead of the curve...((oH, Oh, not a cheap baseball play on words....}
