Mosey Along by Phyllis Wax - Your Daily Poem

Phyllis Wax says she is “mentored in modernity” by her young grandchildren. She finds herself lingering at playgrounds, where she enjoys watching the parent/child dynamics. Phyllis writes in Milwaukee on a bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. She has read her poetry on the radio, in coffee shops, in libraries, and bars, and her work has been exhibited with art quilts and weavings in a variety of venues around the state of Wisconsin as part of four poet/fiber artist collaborations.

I like the "laaazy ramble in the park". I like the stretched out look of lazy, like the sound, and totally like the activity it suggests. Thanks Phyllis.

We would have a better world if more of us followed Phyllis' advice--at least we'd stop meeting ourselves coming and going! Clever poem, like your originality, Phyllis.
