Sweet, summer Saturday afternoon
Eight-year old legs, pumping, body flying
Racing from the five-and-dime
Change clutched in sweaty hand
To the magic palace of my youth

The wonders fifty cents will buy
Two really cool movies
Cartoons
Previews
Popcorn
Candy
The company of my schoolmates
Embarking on a shared adventure, every weeekend
With monsters, and aliens,
Robots, and cowboys
Army guys, and spaceships
Truly, it was a Dreamland.
