Yoo Hoo - Is Anyone Home
YOO HOO! IS ANYONE HOME!
Look up from your tablet ---
Neighboring trees
are tapping, ringing,
asking for sugar.
They just want to say:
“Howdy! Good Morning!”
They shake their leaves
with big wide grins.
Almost too much
to take in the a.m.!
And you notice,
like a childhood dream,
the whole wide world
is peeking in.
You throw open a door
to the rushing feet
of a brisk wind,
your guest so forward,
it turns your cheeks red.
Yet, you welcome
the gesture of warmth,
nevertheless,
grabbing your blanket,
and a piping hot
cup of strong Kona.
Looking down once again
at warm and brisk words,
that steam up spectacles
peeking through
a tablet’s window pane,
wondering if I can be seen,
my nouns and verbs smiling at you.
