Food for Thought

A fireboat goes zipping by;

A seaplane glides across the sky.

Not many folks around, but I

Am glad to be outside.

 

A group of sparrows swoop and fly

While joggers, on a runner’s high,

Race past, as, with a saddish sigh,

Some elders must decide

 

If they should sit or maybe try

To push ahead, no longer spry.

I understand their reasons why,

The past a faulty guide.

 

The ferry empties. Rules apply

For disembarking; most comply.

My time for heading home is nigh,

My food for thought supplied.
