A dog,
A backpack,
A guitar,
A walk on a Arkansas Highway.

Weather warm, dry,
Few clouds in the sky,
This was his world,
Today....

coming out
in backpack bag
at the coffee shop
into back trouser pocket,

There once was a lad we all called him Mack
To carry his snacks, he had a backpack
While taking a snooze,
His backpack he’d lose
Somewhere, someone was enjoying a snack...

snail peeked out of his owner’s Navaho backpack
where was his owner? They would be late for the geology test.
He knew he had been dropped accidentally
he began whistling...

where young is fun
and have say
not just sitting back
waiting for a backpack

and not run

no plans laid 
I always stray
the tickets paid
going one way 
and decision made
no better not to stay 
never to stop 
walk, fly or a quick drop
I want to remain alive...

no true destiny
just anywhere else
penned the sign
backpack will travel

cars honked
many smiles
some waved
I felt like I was drowning

perhaps in a sea of indecision?...

Barney backpack,
Cowboy Boots,
Little tow-head
boy. 

Tasseled  hat, 
Winners robe,
Fine young
man.


Issued backpack, 
Army boots,
Future straight 
ahead.

I'll be okay when
you leave, Then cry
when I can....

It was the worst kind of summer day
You said our path was not your way
You had roads to travel, places to roam
You couldn’t be tied down here at home
So off you went, backpack in hand
To travel and explore distant lands...

its  a summer jam
backpack with ham
cold drink
there eyes wink
and sink
the music the boom box
the music is hiphop
mabe soul or rock and pop
the play ball
by ocean water fall
and some them teach
PICNIC ON THE BEACH...

He carries his life inside a backpack;
 Tumbleweed rolling off beaten track.

Crisscrossed 
your cat's eye
and I pray
you anesthetize me
Now.

Before I speak
Up and stumble
onto this
ridiculousness.

Far fetched and
grotesque is this
self-afflicted
ignominy.

Dismissal, readiness
without a backpack....

an explorer--trudging through the here and now
picking up what works and stowing it in my knapsack
tossing away the discrepancies of what doesn't

a coward--wondering about what might have been
backpack empty except for dreams
that never see the light of day...

The universe lay at his feet
        Sun brilliant o'erhead
     The ocean stretches forever
        Wheat fields before him spread

     Armed with a diploma
        and a backpack full of hope
     Will his stride be bold ~
        his handiwork produce gold...

series haiku

crooked paper heart
fold is on the wrong side
the right side

gripping the crayon
YOU ARE THE BEST, he labors
tongue between his teeth
	
can't wait till Sunday
opening his backpack -
his heart is broken

Mom to the rescue
his hero saves the day
Elmer's glue and hugs...

When you leave its like i want to hide in your backpack,
When you say good-bye its like i say hello,
When you say ill be back i say welcome back,It may seem like your leaving for a lifetime,
When really you just arrived home from Keeping Our Freedom.

Please be Safe- Zach.Tyler.Burris...

Hitch up those britches
Don't show those gitches

Stained with skid marks, no gitches
keep the crabs on your private witches

Bust the slack and expose the crack
Makes me see TP and talk some smack

Cover your assets; keep it in the backpack
Or I will use a thumb tack with a good whack!...

hairy ghoul added juice to gruel
daughter thought he was a big fat fool
mind your business he said
you recent undead
she turned to go to monster school

gruel was gurgling hardily so
thus, she did not mind having to go
she got her backpack
and shoes off the rack
yelled goodbye to those in dungeon below...
