  Seated on a warm, cotton white bed and tapping my fingers nervously, I anxiously awaited the arrival of the nurse to sweep me away to have my adenoids taken out. It was one of the worst feelings in my life. The clock ticked slowly and steadily only with a slight tremor as it hit the ‘2’. I kn...

  In a Park, On a Bench

  

  By TheWritingArtist, Pittsburgh, PA

  Looking through glasses, listening intently, noticing all who passes. It’s me who sits on the lonely park bench scouring the fields for interesting people. They walk their dogs trip over logs and the women wear such hideous uncomfortable obstreperous clogs. Some dance to an unknown be...
