Whimsy happens when
a sixty year old
drops his ty
and for a few minutes
gets to be a six year old.
Whimsy is when an adult allows himself
to be fascinated by
colorful things that spin
and stands there
watching them
and waiting
to catch one idle,
one spinning lazily
and another whizzing
around and around.
Whimsy is laughing aloud
at the humor
in signs.
The English teacher emerges with a mispelling -- check your "ty." I think you meant "tie." I am Mr. Spell Check (smile).
