"Does she love me?" -- a Write for the Sunday Muse


Shivers; 
all about love

She loves him she loves him not 
Sitting on threshold of love 
Somberly he thinks of that 

Seems three petals yet to go 
Selection by kiddie love 
Some never outgrow this stage 

Some wish upon a bright star

Cards -- Lost or misplaced?


          Cards; and a friend 

The little old man had fumbling problems 
Now again tonight at the register 
He couldn't seem to get his credit card 
Opened every pocket in his billfold 

It seemed to him a millennium passed 
Actually only a couple minutes 
and then I popped in with help on my mind 
I said to him, "Sir, hope it isn't lost" 

He let me check and sure enough not there 
"Would you please let me pay with mine, please, please"
Said this as I passed the card to the clerk 
He rung it up, "that's called paying ahead" 

"Thank you, thank you Sir" said the little man 
"I've had that done for me, comes in handy,"

Sometimes you gotta accept little helps 
And that little man, that was me one day
