He knocks on her door with
No more than a smile and
A few flowers.
She's wearing her blue summer dress,
The one she wore in
Hawaii weeks ago.
They take the car
To the ice cream shop,
A bright light on a dimly lit street.
And the girl and the boy
Eat mint chip and cookie dough
Together on the steps in the park.
He tells her, "I like your smile."
She says, "Thanks."
And the girl and the boy
Sit in the park together,
Crickets filling in the silence.

He knocks on her door with
No more than a smile and
A few flowers.
She's wearing her blue summer dress,
The one she wore in
Hawaii weeks ago.
They take the car
To the ice cream shop,
A bright light on a dimly lit street.
And the girl and the boy
Eat mint chip and cookie dough
Together on the steps in the park.
He tells her, "I like your smile."
She says, "Thanks."
And the girl and the boy
Sit in the park together,
Crickets filling in the silence.
wow, um, love?
