    Ten Years

    Walking through the park with Frippy

    Recalling the past

    Mothers wheeling prams

    Old men stalemating

    Kids slipping down the dippery

    Birds sizing up crumbs


    Squeaks

    Squips

    Squeals

    Squawks


    But now silence

    Except for the rain

    Wind

    Thunder


    I pat Frippy's head and watch her diodes light up


    And we walk home through the wet leaves and lightning

    I really enjoyed it MM but the single word lines are rarely enough no matter how they feel so at the time

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.
