POTHOLE FROM HEAVEN

POTHOLE FROM HEAVEN

Pothole in the road

Between me and a grade school

God made this one I know true

With a heart shaped mold

God loves those children

Her finger to the pavement

She pressed out a holy heart

Speed bump from Heaven

Rain filled the hole

Mixed with runoff gasoline

On top reflected a sheen

Of a pretty rainbow

Smiling at me

Located in the alley between me and St. Paul Academy.

Thanks Cheri,

A little related trivia.  The pot hole is located between me, and St. Paul Academy.  It's private elementary school who's alumni includes the great F. Scott Fitzgerald.

I'm by know means a great poet.  But I find solace in knowing I walk in the shadows of a great poet. :)

Thanks Hardrock, but the truth be told, you know your life is boring when you start seeing images in potholes. ;(

Thank you Shirley.  The photo is one I took of the pothole of what I speak.  Indeed, it's in an alley between my place and a playground.  People speeding down the alley was a real problem before it appeared.  And because it makes folks slow down, indeed, it is a gift from heaven.
