We Call Her Gorgeous Turquoise Riding Girl

We call her gorgeous turquoise riding girl. She has pretty hair, the ends of it curl. I think her name is Liz, Mary, Candy or Joan. Is she a lady at all? Asked his cousin on the phone. Not sure, but her name might be Priscilla or Bea. She’s riding a turquoise bike to the left of me. Why don’t you ask her name as she is riding by? I am too shy, said his cousin, hiding one eye.

Ah, poor kid. Shyness is so debilitating to a young lad.

I am never shy, but I never want to read aloud either thanks to a really mean Sunday School teacher who forced us to read the Old Testament outloud and then SHRIEKED correct pronouciations at us almost every other word.
