Hurried Woman....

The past two months

there has been road work 

in the middle of the road

traveling down the hill

from where we live.

The entire community 

knows about it...

So this morning

while driving to class

a young woman in a big, grey, Ford truck

sped up to cut me off 

to get one vehicle ahead

of me...

It was like she thought

she was invisible

and no one could see

her disregard

and rudeness.

I had left early

because I don't like to rush,

so I observed her

but did not allow her actions

to disturb my drive...

I watched her brake lights

go on and off

as she weaved herself

in and out of cars

all the way down the hill...

I'm choosing to believe

she had an emergency

and praying she got there safe.

I bless you hurried woman

and wish you well....
