Follow The Yellow Brick Road
My Dear Brother
I hear
the little Munchkins'
voices saying
"Follow the Yellow Brick Road."
Tonight, I am
following a yellow line
to your room.
Once, for Halloween,
you asked
to be the Cowardly Lion.
That fall day,
I drove, once again,
following a yellow line
To the Halloween store.
Perfect costume
my brother.
I see
Someone stopped by.
Aw, I see your scarecrow
and lion stuffies have been brought.
Testomony of love.
With a yawn
and a stretch
and a quick search
of my phone
I began to play
The Wizard of Oz
We listened
again for the billionth time.
Some where
one of the munchkins
must have told him
to follow
the yellow brick road
and he did.
On a road
I couldn't see.
On a road
not time for me to travel.
He's off to see the Wizard.
