Fog Horn...
I'm here to warn you all, A deep booming rumble, Rolling out upon the invisible waters, Fog and mist obscure, News yet to be discovered.
I danced with the three sisters, For a solid week and more, Squash was delightful and steady, Satisfying, Corn was delectable, Sweet and charming, Green Bean was snappy, Full of energy, But that tango with sweet Watermelon, What an utter delight, I was sated and more.
A chance encounter, The first night it was Pasta, Who tread on my toes, But her wild sister Pizza, Ah, The glories, The glamour!
Yet the next morning, Oh the next morning, You'd think I'd had a fifth all alone, The fog was overwhelming, Dizzying, A hang over, Tired and head-mushed, I crawled off the rack, Dying for the wonderful sense, My rescuer lovely Coffee, Kept me alive through the day.
I think I've finally learned, Those Gluten sisters are all Mickeys, They'll leave you in the fog, All the energy of a cold rock, Praying for the day to end. You've been warned, And I've sailed past.

LOL...But did ya have a good time? Cool write my friend Good to read you again! Hope all's well Michael, thank you. Yes, doing well. It's been a fun six months. I teach IT to adult veterans at a small local college. We've been figuring out the whole distance learning thing. Also my truck was totaled hydroplaning in the rain in April, I spun 4 times around across three lanes of interstate highway at 65 mph. If it hadn't been for the pandemic lockdown I doubt I would be here. (No one else on the road at the time) It was only the vehicle damaged, but more expensive than its current worth. Talk about lucky. I also managed to complete the Microsoft certificate for Windows Server 2012 that I have been working on since the Spring of 2019 just this past Monday. Life is getting better. Dan

A wonderful poem of the perils of those sisters and the joy they brought. Loved the mellow ending. You, my friend, are quite a poet whose work brings light to this often dark world.
