Mr. Magoo

Mr. Magoo
How do you do?

Have a seat
here beside me,

There's room
for two.

He walked
on the grass,
in his cowboy boots.

Said he didn't like
blacktop or dandelion roots.

I spoke of the weather,
the sun and the wind.

When I finished my recital,
he looked at me and grinned.

He didn't say much,
as I recall.

But in his snakeskin boots,
he looked big and tall.

He didn't turn back,
as he walked away.

Didn't say howdy,
or have a nice day.

But I felt a connection,
with Mr. Magoo.

When he sat down beside me,
there was room for two.

Seems that even to a closed, silent man like Magoo (none the less intriguing) your own open attitude can make a difference. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling about the world, and hope!

I loved this, kind of a "there and gone" type of deal.

You make me smile with this one.
I am glad that there is room for two
and I like the simplicity of this poem, but it makes me think.

Thank you for sharing.
