Curlicues and Squiggles
~ Curlicues and squiggles ~
A skywriter flew by
He drew a straight line
I looked up with a sigh
What if the writing were mine
I'd draw curlicues
jagged lines and squiggles
Loop-di-loops with corkscrews
lithe wiggles and jiggles
I'd fill up the sky
with all sorts of shapes
Apes in red capes
and bunches of grapes
to lure loners and lovers
on fire escapes
and behind nighttime drapes
And then at the end
when I'm near out of sky
I'd draw a heart with an arrow
that you and I'll ride
