Friday Poem

The day of the week

Gives bounce to steps

The cheerful worker can relax

7 hours on the road

Blissfully watching TV

As the music is pounded into me

Liquid protein for lunch

Walking around the tools

That give neighbors the means

To kill other neighbors

 Love the sound they make

As gravity is suspended

The lift drag ratio exceeded

Rushing around

The yellow of the clip board

Giving purpose and way

NPR telling me what may

A simple driver I am

Give us 4 billion years

When our galaxy’s merge

Intertwining the center

Into a new pattern

With a new shape and splendor

Potential field trip

The cone of the engine

An engineering feat

It does inspire

Planes in my game room

Will be in my classroom

I sit and drift off

I want to make a difference

It’s a life style
