|
and the may sun shone down on california. |
|
and the strawberries grew fat and full |
|
and thick and red and as big as your fist |
|
and the traffic on riverside drive was thin |
|
but by no means non-existant. |
|
when I saw you against the soda machine. |
|
I saw you leaning there. |
|
and your hand in the basket |
|
was nimble-fingered, and red finger-nailed |
|
and it made me remember the sunflower that popped-up outside my window one |
|
morning in norwalk |
|
it was bright yellow and it was real inviting |
|
and I almost forgot that it was an intruder |
|
and I saw you against the soda machine. |
|
I saw you leaning there. |
|
I saw you against the soda machine. |
|
I saw you leaning there. |
