TIN CAT........

She started slowly to sing,
"Love me tender, love me true,
dooby, dooby, doo....."
I mentioned "That's two different tunes....,"
Just her eyes turned towards me.  A glare.
I felt like a tin cat.
You know what I mean...a tin cat.
Like when a real cat looks that way at a person,
a straightforward ".....accept your irrelevance, human."

WTD.......

"You heard what I said," she responded.
I still wasn't sure, why a duck?
"Don't ever step on a quack" she cried.
"What the duck" I replied.
Suddenly, I understood.

Nail it......

"Can't it wait until spring," I asked.
"No, no, no" she said.   Three times no.
I don't like ladders, especially in the
wind & snow of winter.   I tried to be sweet.
"And don't call me sugar" she yelled.
I thought we were badly paraphrasing lines
from the old movie, but she was quoting.
I went for the ladder and the hammer.
I decided better to nail this one now.

On Track........

Just when your career seems to be taking off
And as more recognition comes your way
With background talk of promotion and pay raises
You begin to think you're on the right road,
That the path is clear, no obstacles in your way
You're on track, till you realize it's the wrong route,
The train left the station decades ago.
And no one really takes trains anymore, anyway.

B 103........

No, it was not bingo and not even close to
a winning number.  It was a destination, or
perhaps just a place to pass by slowly.
All we knew was the distance, the mileage.
We were one hundred and three miles from
Boston, MA. And moving further & further away.

Posted.......

Walking in the woods one day, we came across
your post. We could not understand what you
were trying to say, but we knew it was your post.
You really should follow the instructions for
submitting a post.   We don't want you risking
harm to some innocent woodland creature.

Marbles........

Little pale colored round glass beads.
Marbles. Like when you lost yours.
We came across these hiking in the forest.
Maybe they're yours....maybe not.
Either way, they're ours now!!
