What It Isn'T
...WHAT IT ISN’T
It isn’t waiting for the downtown trolley
Hearing the ding of its bell

As I sit, I glance up mesmerized by the sunset’s view.
Seven deep in a grocery line,

to make some people happy
a midnight snack of goodies

and starts to tumble down
it dings and bounces merrily
oblivious to all around
it slowly gathers speed until
it picks up stones along it's way

When You'Re Away
...My love,
It is midnight and I lay alone.
It will be a while before we see each other again,
Or even speak.

to grow up fast.
Others we want our youth to

Sometimes we want to change

Winter's Last Gasp
...It began with rain, pelting
yellow daffodils to the ground.
Sleet rode rain's coattails,
staccato dings on our windshield.
In the empty parking lot,
black-lettered buses stood

Np Dinging Seatbelt

That cowboys find so bad,
And the worst offender of them all,

And it makes an awful ding,
