Care

The boy who found a choir girl, but didn’t like the raisers.
They cared about his sweetheart, not so much what his grades were.
They didn’t seem to care about his questions or their answers.
And yet they wanted to be sure of what his plans were.
They trusted him to plan his future classes in a advance.
But not to handle what would happen at her pad.
Perhaps they were just scared from the marriage they were forced in,
The magic in the air within the berry met the fork tip.
The time in which the arms clasped.
The cyclone in the top’s pants.
They didn’t want a repeat of what they made of God’s plan.
The climate in his thought’s dance.
The silent sitting. Arm grab.
Heads like a house of cards. Did he take it all fast?


He knew he would want more.
Not even a sophomore.
Who never took health and was scared to death to talk poor.
Who couldn’t even imagine having a girlfriend in grade 8
Not because no one cared, but cause he wouldn’t feel the same way.
Who was frightened to even touch her on the first date and second.
But still he hugged her both times they first made connection.
The boy ran Cross Country, but they didn’t trust him as a pacer.
The boy who found a choir girl, but didn’t like the raisers.
