Last Call Till Closing

have the unidentified cream colored buses passed thru your town yet? they have mine...

Big brother's watching
sober from the side
Give them all doubles
I'm providing the ride

Ears deafened by promise
eyes clouded by greed
they trod on each other
for their right to have free

These sheep unplugged
by foul tasting wine
board cream colored buses
parked waiting in line

Black tinted windows
driver in ominous black gear
no tag on the back
with ID or year

Others more sturdy
call their Father to their side
a last ditch decision
to choose a safe ride

WITH ALL THE CHAOS GOING ON IN THIS WORLD IT IS COMFORTING TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE SERIOUS, CARING INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE WHO ARE NOT SEEKING GLORY BUT 'GO THE EXTRA MILE' TO PREVENT TRAGEDIES. NO, I HAVEN'T SEEN THEM BUT ITS GOOD TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE AROUND. THANKS FOR SHARING, PAT. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...JOYCE*HIS INSPIRATIONS

That foul tasting wine is the problem, Pat, it'll do it to you every time. Besides, cream-colored buses? You've been gone. Missed ya. I'm still pondering the ominous black gear and no ID, or tags. Methinks there is gonna be a tough ride.

Saner heads prevail? It happens... Not always, but every now and then.... think this might have been a now, (or maybe a then.)

Thanks Dick
