Good Feelings

14 9 7
                                    

The parking lot is packed

At small hot donut shop

From laundromat window

I watch folk's morning hop


They need their morning fix

Of sugar and some wheat

All the different flavors

Hot donuts can't be beat


Cars lined out on the street

Wait for drive-thru to creep

Folks exit from the shop

Boxes piled in a heap


Then I notice something

I did not see before

Drivers stop their creep

Let space create a door


Now folks who parked their car

Can leave their parking spot

Kindness for another

A spark to my day's lot


Later I discovered

It's 'Buy one get one day'

Why folks were so patient

Good feelings were in play
