bus.
as another school year
draws to a close
my time on the bus
is almost over
and
i think
i’ll miss
all the action:
who sits with who
who lost their coat
who forgot their bag
who needs a band-aid
who has the wrong bag
who sat by the window last
who didn’t bring their boots
who has trouble sitting at all
who was supposed to stay at school
who is crying, laughing, squealing, bouncing?
it might be me.

“i’d rather go by bus.”

we plant
we nourish
we shop
and
we learn
from the farmers at the market
we become farmers with our own market.

the farmers, therefore, are the founders of human civilization.”
