Hopping on the bus, now get some sleep

Post you a smile, flaunting dress
All my friends are...

I cycled to Hawthorne before the dawn,
Saw a deer on Taxter Road leading a fawn.
I reached a field of the kids little League.
Waited for the train, too pumped for fatigue.

The train passed by lakes of...

Through transparent window panes.

I love plenty green grass growing with flowers
fireflies flickering at shows at nighttime

When did those girls of childhood disappear,
Those wearing shorts, summer tans, jelly smears.

Who, loving paper dolls, hours of fun,
sported Band-Aids on knees like ev'ry one!

roller skates, sleep-overs, movie star...

though in the past were many things that I liked to do -
like bicycling, swimming, and playing ping pong too.
But with most things physical, my body now...

For the sun has taken the sail, painting the sky a tapestry of emotions.
The wind wafted through my hair, making it dance to its rhythm.
The trees pranced like a cheer squad, shaking their poms poms
Streets...
