Memorial weekend Saturday, <br />Flowery boulevards are drenched in sunlight. <br />An Ice-cream truck pulls to the curb <br />For a happy, smiling, little girl <br />And then extends his Stop Sign; <br />Cars moving in both directions <br />Halt in a summer-like parade <br />And await the young child <br />To make her selection. <br />She pays for her ice-cream <br />And then cautiously looks both ways <br />Before crossing the street. <br />Every driver feels beautiful inside <br />To see the little blonde girl <br />Go home safely and excitedly with her ice-cream, <br />And inwardly express a thought-prayer <br />That everyone remain <br />Innocent and unharmed in this life. <br /> <br />4: 10PM 5-24-08<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/and-it-was-also-bob-dylan-s-birthday/
