I sworn I took out the word
'Had' from this poem and just
saw it....arrrrrrrrg, frustates
me so, below is corrected version.

>LESS SORROW

>A perfect summer night
>Now in a wondering mood
>After leaving a good friend
>Who's strange question,
>Had left her somewhat unglued.

>Wanting cleansing speed
>And wind through her hair
>With precision of gears shifting
>Her to a higher level of aware.

>Impulsively she enters the highway,
>Her little black dog riding by her side
>She quickly shifts from third to fifth
>For her car moving as if down a water slide.

>Feeling as if she's thriving while driving
>With the bright stars twinkling above,
>Contentment takes a hold before being startled
>By a sight, hard to conceive of.

>A flash of a large gold necklace
>Upon a woman waving her arms
>Standing next to her broken down car
>A sight, that set off my internal alarms.

>Of how, she was open to prey
>From any low lifers driving by
>So on went my left signal
>To stop on the median, ever so spry.

>With relief, she ran up to my car
>After apologetically asking her to open her purse
>Making sure there was no gun
>I offered a ride without reimburse.

>For there could be I
>With a broken down car
>In the middle of almost nowhere
>Not being able to run, even if a track star.

>Which she certainly was not,
>Just a daughter on her way to the airport
>With incorrect directions, going wrong way
>As well as car problems leaving her quite short.

>And very worried about her Mother,
>Who should have arrived
>At Newark's Terminal C
>Probably feeling very info deprived.

>So me and my little dog Onyx
>Got this daughter there
>For a happy family reunion
>After both being, slightly scared.

>With things under control
>I bid them a fond adieu
>To disappear back into the night
>Feeling quite spiritually accrued.

>Thanking the Highest Source
>I was put there to help
>And of her in newspapers tomorrow
>I would not have to read
>That this world .. had added more sorrow.

>This happened about five years

>forgotten about it except I had
>my memory jarred the other night,
>so I wrote a poem...*grin*. And
>I'm also blessed with my job, to
>help people every day. The
>gun reference is because around then,
>there was a spree of a woman
>decoy feigning a need for help
>and when someone stopped,
>hidden men would jump out
