Lett'n Go of Lego

Lettin’ Go of Lego

“Hi Dave”

“Hi Jimmy, com’on in.
Brought your whole box.
With all of mine its J&D Lego Land.
You and me know all the blocks,
and all the ways they snap together and build.
Let’s do the steeple hidden rocket launcher
on the church with RPV control operation inside mounted on wheels.
Now to the kitchen, us two Lego Contest heroes, for some ice cream
and tease Mom a bit.”

“Hey Jim, give me five.
Brought down the stands.
With you and me its J&D Football Land.
You running behind my blocks,
and we always we snap through the line and score.
Let’s do it again at the states and go downfield like on wheels.
Now to the school hop, us two Game Win heroes, for some fancy dancing
and tease the girls a bit.”

“Hello James, glad you’re in.
Big day; big change! Yes, marrying Diane!
Need you with me June 21, be my Best Man.
No more snapping with blocks; no contests or games.
Lettin’ go of lego.

Ahh, my Diane! Mystery!
Her love has no pieces, no win or lose, just timeless.
No above or below, in front or behind, on the left or right.
Remember in springtime, through the woods to the field,
then down the hill path, be enveloped by fragrance.
The blackberry bramble humming with bees, dressed in white blossoms,
Supple green arches festooned with thorns making shelters for its soft furry creatures.
Breathed in the ambient aroma – into our lungs, into our blood.
Pumped by beating heart to flood our minds and psyches,
flow through vessels and capillaries to nourish every cell.
Mystery, Diane, mysterious ambience,
D&D.”
