Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Rookie

A rookie cop in the squad car,
With an older cop on patrol,
Was very gung ho insofar
As keeping tabs on crowd control.
Stopping at a corner, he saw
A bunch of people standing there.
Sure that this was a broken law,
His bull horn echoed through the air,
"You all are ordered to disperse."
"There is to be no loitering."
The people fled, fearing the worse.
Rookie asked , "How am I doing?"

"Oh great," chuckled the older cop,
"You ran off folks from a bus stop."
