Chocolate Hearts
I hear the dog start to bark,
He must be here already.
I walk out to greet him,
Still putting on my glove.
We go through a used car lot,
And a line of newly planted trees.
We enter into a drug story.
We walk straight t the candy isle.
He asks me what I want.
How excited I am--chocolate!
As I look at all the delicacies,
I can see him fidgeting with something in his pocket.
When he goes to pay,
He puts a nickel and an orange.
I go to pick out something different,
But the sales lady accepts it.
Outside, cars fly by.
He reaches for my hand,
And I place mine in his.
After two blocks he lets go.
I open my chocolate heart.
As I look over, I see him,
Unpealing an orange.
Yet, I see his eyes light up
As he looks at me.
I look at the orange.
It is a bright, blazing orange.
I take my chocolate heart
And give half to him,
And we both smile at each other.
This is a poem that my sister wrote for school, and for some reason, I really liked it. She was ecstatic when I offered to put it on FP, so please, critique it! It's the original, raw, production, with no corrections or anything. I'll give her any reviews that you guys give. Thanks!
