(813)▪︎[ The Scare … 9•23•2020 ]

[ Today I Had Quite The Scare ]
[ When My Family & I Were Walking Across The Parking Lot ]
[ I Almost Got Hit By A Car ]
[ Because The Driver Did Not Seem Aware ]
[ That I Was There ]

[ The Car Jolted To A Stop Less Than An Inch ]
[ Away ]
[ That Really Made Me Flinch ]
[ I’d Say ]

[ He Almost Got Me With His Hood ]
[ & That Would Not Have Felt Good ]

[ We Got In A Really Bad Accident Several Years Ago ]
[ When That Driver Hit Us, Time Went By So Slow ]

[ He Totaled Our SUV From Door To Door ]
[ But This Near Miss Scared Me More ]

[ I’m No Macho Man That Says ( I WASN’t SCARED ) ]
[ & Walked Across That Parking Lot Because I Was Dared ]

[ The Driver Was Much Older Than I ]
[ Yes He Was That Old ]
[ I Tell You No Lie ]

[ It Was Dusk So I Guess I Could Have Been Hard To See ]
[ & I Guess To Some People ]
[ I’m Barely Taller Than Their Knees ]

[ I Yelled ( STOP ) Because He Did Not @ The Stop Sign ]
[ He Did Not Slow Down @ The Marked White Line ]

[ I Felt Rattled & Shaken, That I Am Sure Of ]
[ But I’m Glad It Was Me ]
[ & Not Someone That I Love ]

[ The Man Rolled Down His Window & Talked With My Wife ]
[ I Kept Walking Because My Head Felt Light ]
[ For The First Time In My Life ]
[ My Balance Did Not Feel Quite Right ]

[ No, My Life Did Not Flash Before My Very Eyes ]
[ That Would Had Been Quite The Surprise ]

[ Maybe This Will Help Me Be An Earlier Riser ]
[ I Only Wish That It Would Make Me Be More Humorous & Wiser ]

[ Now I Am By No Means A Religious Person Like Others
Can Be ]
[ But This Kind Of Helps Me See ]
[ That Maybe GOD Is Not Done With Me ]

[ I Want To Live More ]
[ I Want To Give More ]
[ I Want To Laugh More ]
[ & I Want To Love More ]

[ The Older I Get ]
[ The More I Cherish The People That I’ve Met ]
[ So There Must Be A Good Reason I Bet ]
[ That I’m Not Done Here Yet ]

[ To My Friends & Loved One’s I Cherish You ]
[ Because I Thank You ]
[ For Being You ]

[ Have A Good Night ]
[ & Always Fight The Good Fight ]

[ This Is How I Think & Feel ]
[ Because This Was Very Much On The Spot Real ]
[ After Having That Scared Elderly Man ]
[ Behind That Wheel ]

~ The End ~
