in the woods

by rhoda penmrq





arthur c
rode down highway 3

blip blop
he came to a stop

he leaned his bike against a tree
because he wanted all creatures to be free

he entered the woods
because he had the goods

he sat on a hollow log
because he wished he were a dog

he heard a leaf fall from above
because he had never known love

it started to rain
he thought, here i am again

i have been here before
in ancient song and lore

he looked up and saw a bear
carrying an easy chair

after the initial shock
arthur and the bear had a serous talk
