TOPIARY MIRAGE

Near the Employee’s entrance

Is planted  a topiaray-like bush…

The bottom ring has grown enough

To give its shadow a tush…!

Seeing this from the parking lot,

It looks like some standing there…

Until one

Is closer  brung,

To see it’s a bush, silly bear!

The effect is only at night,

When dark with occasional light…

a fuzzy silhouette

This bus gets,

If not thinking it would cause fright!

The radar weather maps show

We’ve more spot showers to go…

I thought it was drying

But raindrops flying

On camera are mirages, I suppose?

ROMANTIC NOTIONS

ROMANTIC NOTIONS

She passed by without a coat on

And he was taken aback…

He found he still held some feeling,

(So easy to get back on track).

Her nicely shaped blouse in light blue

And darker slim-looking slacks…

Were certainly a good view,

While her smile gave his heart several whacks!

So quickly his mirage faded,

Or was it really mirage…

His mind suddenly less jaded

Broke out inside with applause.

She gladdened his heart for a moment

And then once more when she left…

This pleasant interaction went quickly,

A personal secret kept.
