Late to School

Salmon Rubenstein
Was late to school.

Going back to school
After being out
For so many years
As life had intervened.

He was eager to get back
And finish his degree.

The bus was late
Some roads had been
Flooded
Because of the lingering
tropical storm Hillary.

He stopped off
At a café
To eat spumoni.

Recalling it was
National spumoni day.

Sitting in the café
Looking at the rain
come down.

In the distance
A dog barked.
