Through the mist

came a guttural cry

having slid down the rocks

afraid it may die

Rain coming down

typical for this calendar day

causing slime to develop

slippery where ivy frays

Coming to rescue

is the animal’s mate

slowly hanging on

to a nature wall plate

Extending a paw

together they rise

reaching safety

that is verbalized

Disappearing in the mist

on the to the next adventure

there is a rainbow in the falls

celebrating victory in the venture

The impressive sunset

called to the man

having a vacuous smile

he floated away from the land

Foolish things

this takes the cake

an adventure

may be a mistake

Floating farther

trying to touch the sun

to reach the horizon

before the day is done

Margarita was part of it

giving him false courage

kicking his feet

ignoring the current

The moon rose

his mission had failed

someone called the coast guard

rescue detailed

Waking up

the guard opened the jail

with a hangover

he had made bail

Now lying in a hammock

waking from a pleasant dream

traveling the world

with margaritas and ice cream

Reaching into a surreal world

searching for the shag wig

the colorful bush holds many things

treasures within the twigs

First pulling out a screw

from a project long past

setting it aside

wondering how long it will last

Next came a bone

buried by the dog

throwing in the yard

oops, hit a frog

Finding my shag wig

an interesting site

the color washed out

now muddy with some white

Washing it out

placing it on my head

family is laughing

at how far it spreads

Walking away

it’s a great new look

suddenly a bird grabs it

an efficient crook

Back in the house

recovering from the ordeal

grateful for the ordinary

bald head is now ideal
