Another day...

...up early again,
just what is it? Is it just the hour ten?
or the thirty minutes after,
is it a trick or recipe for disaster?

Well, it does'nt matter, in the great scheme of things,
It would be like waiting for a phone that never rings.
But yesterday went much better than I expected,
it was easy and pleasant, my patience not tested.

We started at seven, as we also do,
straight down to Belfast, we practically flew,
no! we obey the speed limit, plus just a couple,
don't need any tickets, or some kind of trouble.

At Belfast we headed to a predetermined place,
Great Dunkin' Donuts, she loved the good taste.
A Toffee with your coffee, a donut of choice,
and iced cappuccino added to voice.

Somethings not right with the drink I am told,
and the guy that made it, wasn't that old,
and I suspect he didn't quite know;
how to make it way that he had been told.

Off to Augusta on route seventeen,
I like that road a lot, there's things to be seen.
And about in the middle, or someplace in there,
when you look to the right, it's like you're up in the air!

In Augusta we first went to, see if you can guess,
the new Hanaford market to see if it was a mess.
It's a really different in a good sort of way,
made just the way things should be today.

And I'll be you can't guess, after she got to choose.
where we got a DVD, a magazine with nice photos to use.
Do you smell plastic heating in that machine?
Laminate the stuff, yes that's what I mean!

Do it five times and then try to determine,
if that was enough, well are you quite certain?
If you guessed yes, you would be wrong,
not even close - stop singing that song!

After we'd gone to the Christmas Tree Shop,
then to the Made in Maine store for a stop.
Can you guess the number of additional things,
see if two causes any rings.

So we went to Staples, not the first place you fool!
More than one is the reason we got to be really cool.
Go to the old one over by the Barnes and Noble store,
see if they can laminate, no trimming for sure.

Then lunch at Sams, she took my suggestion,
because I made look like she asked to question.
Then up to Waterville on route one oh four,
no interstate today we're on a grand tour.

Into the Mardens is where we went next,
not much in there, she was quite vexed.
But she finally found, as she often does,
something to buy, something she loves.

By the time we had traveled on one thirty nine,
let's see Fairfield, Benton, to the Unity line.
then it continues Thorndike, Knox, Brooks and Monroe,
suddenly to Hollies, around the corner we go.

So if you feel need to travel, or go for a ride,
she is the one you want by your side.
And when it's all over and you're finally home,
you may lose the desire to go out and roam.

And in addition you may need to express,
gratitude (you know thanks), but I won't press,
but please think about hunger and homelessness,
maybe there's something you can express;

just one little thing that can change that whole mess,
maybe some food, clothing or such you posses,
that you could donate, heck it couldn't cost less,
and for that I say thank you and Higher Power please bless.

Have a great day!
