Remember your Angels are Watching

Thoroughly poetic Thursday #15

  Today we join Two  SPOILED CATS  

Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.

Here is our inspiration


I'm 'just' old enough to remember 
concession peeps. 
Mostly I remember them during baseball games.
Up and down the stadium steps.
Hollering, ' Get your Popcorn, hot dogs, 
roasted peanuts, candy, cold drinks in cups.'
How did they do that? 
 There must have been a wee man stowed 
in the tray
Busy cooking up everything under the rainbow.

  6. Yes, I definitely remember them at baseball games but not at the movies. I loved baseball game hot dogs. Haven't had one in years.

  12. Well done on the poem. It was a simpler time, but a good time nonetheless. This is one of the reasons why.

    Have a fabulous Thankful Thursday, honey. Big hug. ♥
