A
meeting overdue.
How
wonderful to see them
And
catch up on all that’s new!
We
strolled around the reservoir
Then
found a place to sit –
A
shady bench with bushes,
Fore
and aft, for just a bit.
As
we conversed, a little mouse
Did
scurry from the brush
To
underneath our bench in quite
A
mouse-like frenzied rush.
My
friends were quite blasé.
One
said, “Just raise your feet a bit.”
The
other said, “It’s just a chipmunk.”
(She
was full of shit.)
That
mouse (or else its cousins)
Scampered
back and forth all day,
At
least for the entire time
Of
our reunion stay.
Still,
I must thank my lucky stars
We
got to meet and that
The
mouse that we encountered
Wasn’t
actually a rat!
