IT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT

IT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT

 

While doing a puzzle “word find”

Another dimension came to mind…

A summer afternoon

In a screened-in porch room,

Doing puzzles to pass the time.

–

It felt like being in a cottage,

Well-deserved vacation work stoppage…

In the soft summer air

I relaxed there,

 In the stove inside simmered pottage.

–

Split-second–I was back at a desk,

At work trying my best…

To not fall asleep

Until my turn to keep,

My walking round in safety vest!

–

In truth we had visited “our” land,

That the bank now owns to command…

One-half we are owed

By a developer who showed,

Us half up front, cash in hand.
