Over the Orange Cone – v2

He didn’t know it when he placed it

the worker gathering them up

a challenge for the children

for each one in turn.

Walking to their school van

playing follow 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
