Delite
if
it’s not
one
thing … it’s
girl-scout-cookies
can’t
say
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
to
toothless pink pigtails
hopping
up and down
with
her curbside crew
chanting
she
jest wouldn’t understand …
no-thank
you-dear-everything hurts-when-you-get-old-
and-one-day-you’ll-understand-
and-have-20pounds-to-lose-and-unexpected
things-
will-set-ya-back-a-notch-or-two-or-three-and-the-last-thing-ya-need-to-do-
is-devour-a-box-of-caramel
delite-in-1.2
toothless
grins wider when I hand her a $20
for
five boxes of delite
and
tells me what a GREAT choice I made
and
as I walked away laughing at life
and
heard them chanting to the next customer
I realized it was a great
choice
