Poem- “Soda and Flowers”

“Soda and Flowers”

I live in California.

A wet floor sign probably also says, “Piso Mojado.”

That’s Spanish.

It means the same thing.

You read it as “floor wet”.

Spanish is only romantic for a romantic moment.

Obviously, there’s nothing romantic about a wet floor sign in the restaurant.

Sometimes it’s social, sometimes it’s busy, sometimes it’s a vacuum.

Notice that the wet floor sign is usually yellow.

A color like yellow can describe mileage, rush, waiting, and speed of bags.

It’s more looking than reading.

You hardly notice.

Everything can be dry and still be wet.

The sign will probably remain for a long morning or a short evening.

Once in a while, people trip over the sign.

It’s not on purpose.

But, with a happy hour to barely notice, the distance matters of cool shoes.
