in
the early days on a sunny street – jack kerouac
it
was an empty sandlot in the day
where
all the children came to play
sand
castles and baseball diamonds
army
men with hills to climb on
sweaty
socks and sandy shoes
girls
in pink and boys in blue
don’t
be home till supper time
ice
cream cones for just a dime
imagination
taking hold
sticks
were swords and rocks were gold
school
was gone all summer long
drank
from hoses on the lawn
born
in nineteen-sixty-one
youth
was hotdogs on a bun
sunny
days go out and play
watch
cartoons on a saturday
