Yesterday, while I was exploring the foyer of the cultural art center, I came across a "Free Poetry Dispensor". What? A dispensor that gives you free poetry? Yes, that's right! I couldn't resist. Created by local poet, Michelle Corriel. I had been working on a post on the topic of saying "Yes" (see part 2) and was blown away by the poem that I pulled out:
YES
When in the land of ifs,
Which is grown-up land,
Should you want a Yes,
A for sure, rock hard Yes,
Of course don't ask a grown-up.
Grown-ups say but perhaps later maybe
If only except that and possibly, no.
A kid says,
"Why not walk in the creek with your socks on?
That's why we've got a washing machine."
John Heilman
So True! Love the idea of the dispenser too.
