Clock's alarm blares me awake.
Another planned day has begun,
with little done for pleasure's sake
each hour scheduled sun to sun.
And I drift through it like a ghost,
this day just like the one before,
not one event of which to boast.
No surprises any more.
Until week's end brings Saturday
and I wake up with a smiling face
well before the break of day
thinking about another place.
Camo on and grab my gun
jump in the truck and down the road
in a hurried race to beat the sun
to that place where I can unload.
No telling just what I might see today
in the wooded world which has no script
as I slowly make my shambling way
through woods most might think nondescript.
In a life with little unexpected
where every day's another bore
how could this old guy be dejected?
Surprise is what I've come here for.

I like the way you prepare
I like the way you prepare the reader for your last lines.
Hi Riz
Thank you. I try to do that in a lot of my scribbling. It can Really come in handy when trying for humor such as in my "Sins of the Flesh". Thanks for dropping by
