Missing Something? by olivetreeann

Missing Something?

You sped along this road, hit a bump and sent me whirling to the side. I lay there, lost and forgotten until some kind soul hung me on this branch in hopes that you would see me. And still you drive by, day after day, never glancing my way, leaving me here, hanging in disgrace! You hurry past me as I call out, "Missing something!?" But today, someone stopped. Someone paused and stepped out toward me. Would they take me home? Could I be of use to them? No such luck! Instead I am only subject matter- the final ignominy.

It hangs there, day after day, and I wonder if the person who lost it will ever see it!
Bummer for someone, great find!

haha! I love this! This just shows us that photographers are really observant!

Hopefully someone will spot it.

@httpgeffed Thanks Colleen, but it's been there for quite some time- I don't think the person who lost it realizes it's gone!
@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!
@mrssmith Thanks Carla- yes only the photographer has noticed it so far!
@digitalrn Thanks Rick- but so far it's been there for at least a month and no one has claimed it. Apparently it did not belong to the person who hung it up!

Love the story! Poor hub cap. Maybe it's owner will recover it some day. It's a nice hub cap too.

Nice composition and description. Maybe they gave up on looking for it if they even cared.

@prttblues Thanks Bev! I know- I keep thinking someone's going to take advantage of it hanging there, but it's been up there for quite some time now!
@woot Thanks Davide- it's fun to make the commentary a little creative once in a while. And you're right there are many things we go past day after day and never really see!
@inertie thanks Inertia!
@cimes1 Thanks Carole!
@netkonnexion Thanks Netkonnexion!
@potsbypam Thanks Pam!
@jeancarl Thanks JeanCarl! I have no idea- it's been there for a while. Maybe I'm the first person to really SEE it!

Thanks everyone for all the great comments. I'm grabbing a few minutes to catch up on comments and will try to get back on track in viewing when I get back home.
