Next!
Number 42,
only 7 more away.
The numbers
slide by like
molasses
from that jar
spilled onto
the cold floor
during breakfast.

The wait grows
unbearable
no inspiration
has hit yet.
With patience
and alertness
I know it will
soon arrive.
Til then I
sit on the
sidelines,
watching, waiting
preparing.

Next, no,
not yet my turn
But soon,
very soon shall be.
Then it will
be my at bat.
I'll take the shot.
Maybe share
some of glory,
or handle defeat.
Either way, I await
my chance to play.
Until that time
I'll just
idly watch
ready til,
Next!

Let's put the FUN back into Dysfunctional.

CondorSey,
Next! you're up to bat
so take your hat
do your best
and leave here blest...as I was by your write.It brought back some good memories for me of childhood softball.
Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

(sigh) Ohhhhh, I know just how you feel, when me and my mom go to the grocery store, we have to get a number and wait, and many times there are people who always fake the number and then it slows down the process! LOL! You expressed this feeling so very well, sweet friend, you are never alone! We all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
