Back When I was Four
Under the Wires

Sarah had ice cream
David had a popcycle
and I had iced fudge

When we were done eating

Sarah had nothing
David had a popcyle stick
and I had a woodden stick

David and I concluded
that we had made
the best choices
because we had something
in the end

David said
what he got
was better

I have to agree
the red plastic stick
looked like a sword
it did look nice

But when we got inside
my mom
took the plastic stick

She wanted
to make more
popcycles with it

So in the end
I was the only one
who still
had something

I was damn proud
at that moment
that's why I remember
