PiNEaPpLE
Pineapple. Yay!!”
the young boy shreaked in excitement
as his father bought a popsicle for him,
deftly talking him out of the lime one.
“Too Sour.”
Eager to please, the boy accepted his father’s wisdom.
Pure expressions of joy, in the moment -
cooperation built on time-tested wisdom.
Life is simple like this.
More often, this, I should remember.
