Tummy aches and cranberry cakes
Needles and shots and chocolate milkshakes
Noisy lawnmowers and pretty blue eyes
Broken stereo sets and curly chili cheese fries
Smelly gym socks and twirling Merry-Go-Rounds
Midterms and finals and Christmas-on-the-town
Prickly thorn bushes and snuggly Cashmere sweaters
Homework on Fridays and playing Bananagrams when you got all the right letters
Muddy boots dragged across a clean kitchen floor
Laughing ‘til you cry, and you can’t laugh no more
Jumping in a pile of golden leaves you just raked
Tummy aches stink, but who’s up for cranberry cake?
