Pink Polyester Pants

~~~~~~~~                     Pink Polyester Pants               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I really like to ride my bike, outside your porch, hopin' for a glimpse,
of you sitting, singing dress a clinging in neatly pleated floral chintz.
  
And that time after school-ly when that bully pinched you on the buttocks,...
Though I decked em, I must respect em for admirin' your tattered denim cut-offs.
  
And, oh, did you look sweet and sassy when you wore that peasant blouse,... 
though maybe not so replete and classy when you trick or treat'd at my house.  

Though you are one year older, I sure feel bolder a'climbin' o yer backyard fence.   
But I really flipped when I saw you slipped inside those pink polyester pants!

I felt myself on a retro swing back to the seventies. Loved it, Richard. Thanks for the trip.
