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
