Todays Special

If you go with me,
                                      todays special is 
                               twice around the moon and back.
                               Gathering stardust for your collection,
                                    just you and me.

                                Learning the constellations,
                                    and making a few of our own.

                                And when we return,
                                   we'll write a book and become
                                        learned people.
                                And if the special doesn't fit,
                                   we can have hot dogs and beans.

This poem is totally delightful! It's all about the journey, and the fact that it's a shared journey, and the destination or the result doesn't really matter that much. This poem makes me smile and feel cozy inside. A new fav. I love it!
