going, going...
by
Phyllis Beckman

i don't "adieu".
you asking why?
its nothing new,
just makes me cry,
just causes pain,
just springs forth tears,
with 'naught to gain
but age old fears.

"later, gator",
is more my style,
leaving most folks
in toothy smiles
while crocodile
gapes his wide grin...
"later, gator?
that be, like
when?"
