Lucky Summer

While walking
Down the deserted
abandoned railroad tracks
looking for a place to camp out,
Sam Adams found a penny
On the side of the road.
And knew it was a lucky penny
Perhaps worth something.
He turned on his portable CD player
Listening to some melody.
Walking down the railroad path,
Encountering a Squirrel
Who looked at him
Then scampered away
As the coyote approached.
Sam Adams shooed him away.
Thinking it was a lucky summer
As he had survived
The super pandemic.
