A Bit of Hot Air

His hot air balloonexperience was really out of hand,The man had gotten misplacedas he floated o’er the land,He lowered his balloonto seek out someone who could help,A guy was walking pastand so he gave that man a yelp,“Excuse me, sir,” hehollered. “But I’m really in a jam…“Please, could I ask foryou to stop and tell me where I am?”The man just smiledand nodded, “Well, I’m happy to, for sure!You’re thirty feet upin the air, roaming four or six miles per!”Balloonist said, “Confessit, now, you’re working for IT,”The walker smiled andnodded, said, “I cannot but agree.“But now I’m verycurious. Please tell me how you knewI do encoding with mydays. Your knowledge, now, imbue!”Balloonist shruggedand said, “Though given all that I asked for,Your words gave littlehelp, I’m lost just like I was before!”The walker nodded, “Iwould guess that Management, you are.”And when the managreed, he said, “It really wasn’t hard.You don’t know whereyou are, you’re riding higher on hot air,You want me to solveyour problem while you sit there in your chair,Exactly where you werebefore you wanted me to halt,Your decisions allwere yours, but now it’s suddenly my fault!”

With poetry, we all besought
To try to make the week begin
With gentle thoughts,
Perhaps a grin?
So Karen , Charlotte, Mimi, me
Have crafted poems for you to see.
And now you’ve read what we have wrought…
Did we help?
Or did we not?
