The party's over...

Random Sunday morning thoughts...

Pastel colors, strolling in the wind...

Really not more than grapes on a string.

Bouncing along in a weird game of tag...

Just one more discarded rubber thing.

 

A half-eaten hotdog,

an empty watermelon rind

Trash lying beside the can...

I guess no one took the time.

 

Stale red punch in a cup,

sugar-filled Styrofoam left by a tree.

Another dinner for the ants

another casual reminder for me.

 

Clean the yard...

THE PARTY’S OVER!

I was just going to say you've gone serious again until I read that peter-pull thing. I have thought about writing something racey based on "Peter, the meter reader," but never got around to it. You may take that one and run with it if you wish. You could probably do it more justice than I, anyway. Sam
