Green Bag Lady

Green Bag Lady helps to save the Earth,
Teaching others to value its worth.
Someday maybe we're rid of plastic bags.
Reaching many - her fabric ones with tags.

People baffled she gives bags away.
Believing that's what makes their minds sway.
Labor, fabric donated to her,
Sharing this gift is what she'd prefer!

Sad to be a fan
Losing the Big Man
Many he impacts
With playing the sax
But no longer seen
Beside Bruce Springsteen

VACATION

5/29:
I'm waking up in Little Rock
It's way too early says the clock
Bright and sunny out the window
Back under the covers I go
More music to hear at Riverfest
The crowds and heat may be a test
We'll get away for some baseball
Then tomorrow start our long haul

6/3:
It's not meant to rattle and hum
I'm not dumb, maybe too proud
To complain it was loud
When we checked in
Making all that din
Trouble falling asleep
So I couldn't keep it turned on
So it wasn't long until it got hot
Because it was not working right.
Not a restful night at the casino hotel
Just as well we don't stay longer
My luck could get stronger
But for now I'm just $5.00 ahead
And wide awake in the bed.
