Don't know where this one came from...

The bus,
      heavy-
laden
      with kids,
l a b o r s
      its way
to school.
      Upon
reaching 
      the park-
ing lot,
      it drops
its load --
      Relief.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman (10/25)

A great personification of the bus. I can almost hear "him/her" sigh. Nicely done. Love and peace to you,

Hey Karla, that's clever. Can be interpreted on several levels. For instance, a pregnant woman finally giving birth...dropping her load, as it were! She would feel relief, right? Well done! :)

God Bless
LOL

Sooo well done, Karla. Says it all visually as well as syllabically. As Victor says, sounds like an exhausted mother putting her feet up with a well-earned cup of tea for 5 minutes peace and quiet. Conjures much with a few well-placed words. TY K xx

With all the children jumping up and down, no wonder the bus need relief. Must have been painful. Victor

Karla ...

This could very well be an advertisement for a laxitive. Sometimes, I imagine, that full bus can feel like being constipated.

Goodun ...

LOL, this piece has a lot of significance, Karla. My husband is retired from an Engineering career and drives a school bus! I'll have to print this out for him. The relief belongs to the driver, not the bus, rest assured! Excellent poem!
Love,
CJ
