I've had this
penchant for digging
since I buried Barbie
in the sandbox.
She didn't complain
as much as my sister.
Her eyes were open
and bright.

Mom missed one, but not the other.

It grew with me,
this penchant.
I still have all my
old shovels.
My new ones are
ergonomic. and have
increased production.

The sods are so much greener.

I sometimes miss
that old sandbox though.
Without regular use
it became rancid from
urinating dogs that would
stray onto the property.
Catching them after the fact
taught me to love tempura.

Recycling is in everyone's interest.

Now that I'm semi-retired,
I've grown fond of investing.
Everyone seems to agree
that real estate is the major wave.
Good ground, that's for me.
The only rocks worth a tinker's damn
are in their rings and necklaces.
Good ground, that's for me.

You'd think I'd grow out of it,
wouldn't you?

...Just being Bluesy
