What sharp comical imagery. A bagel in the wind. It almost makes you want to chase that bagel and go rolling right along with it.

This poem made me laugh, and any poem that can do that is a good one in my book. :)

I liked how he transitioned from being annoyed about the situation to being "strangely pleased" at this ridiculous occurance. Wouldn't life be so much better if we could let go of our little annoyances and just see it all for the comedy that it is. After all, the annoyance exists only within us; neither the bagel nor the wind were annoyed in this poem.
