Two Treasures Of A Day Gone By

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I was so charmed by this little man and his hot dog stand, that I plan to make at least one trip a week to see him.  In my part of the country, in the heat of summer it can get to 120 degrees!  The winds can sometimes gust to 50 mph.  He explained to me that he is always at his stand, come what may, Monday thru Friday ten till three.  He has been doing this now for about five years. He told me, "Ah, I don't make much money... but I make plenty of friends!"  I only pray that I will not visit one day and find him gone. What a tribute to his erra! This quaint little man and his cart of yesterday, has truly touched my heart!  Here's to many more hot dogs between friends Harley! ~Lesa~

Being a Daddy has given wing to inspirations that probably never would have seen the light of day.  And this is a feather from those wings.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Though the very fact that this piece has been posted on an electronic poetry forum may seem a bit contradictory, I hope not ALL of its meaning has been compromised.
