Dee Camp Poet Couplet

The Riding Cart

Squeeze! the Old Man, riding on his cart,
  thoughtless people block his way as he tries to put in park.
Switch goes up, switch goes back, he's circling all around,
  Lets hope he parks it soon enough, I think I see a frown.
I often see those riding carts & they really make me think,
  to ride for fun would be a blast, to depend on would really stink.
Help the man, move out the way, don't stand there & observe,
  He's trying hard to be on his way, respect is well deserved.

Kim M April 20, 2010 at 9:45 AM Your kind heart is showing again! I interpretted this cart as one of those motorized shopping carts designed for individuals who can't stand very long. People can be so insensitive and selfish throughout their day, thinking only of themselves in their endeavors. Your observation and complaint against the guilty disrespectful parties and support for the underdog has shined a positive light in my day.
