Childhood Summers

Bewitched by Marsha Brady
And three's company too
Every weekday morning
My eyes were glued

Pop tarts, burnt and buttered
Cotton p.j. Dress
I can't speak for the others 
But this was my summer bliss

The sprinkler on the drive
Back and forth, I ran
Happy to be alive
Didn't have to have a plan

The woods outside my window
Went on, it seemed, for miles
They led me to a meadow
The memories make me smile
