The Fountain of Youth

My Take

DiVoran Lites

I would like:
To snorkel around the Fountain of Youth looking for friendly perch.
I would like:
To coast down a long, winding hill on a bicycle.
I would like:
To gallop across a prairie on an appaloosa.
I would like:
To dance the polka around a gymnasium floor.
I would like:
To share a banana-split at a soda-fountain.

But for now:
I see, hear, chew,
Smile, laugh, read,
Bake potatoes, make tea,
And slow-dance on shiny vinyl

I sing too:
“One Day at a Time”
