Over the Orange Cone

He didn’t know it
the worker gathering them up
a challenge for the children
for each one in turn
Walking to the van
following the leader
straddling the orange cone
barely clearing its top
good thing it was a short one
or they would have had to stop
following the leader
when the leader was too tall

Over the Orange Cone

watching five kindergarteners and first graders

following the after school daycare worker

walking across the parking lot

following their leader

wherever he may go
