It all started with some paper,
some duct tape, a dream,
and a tangerine.
These items mashed into one created a type of ball.
And it grew, it grew until it could grow no longer.
It was what we were, children.
But now we are older and those days have past.
Though I will never forget my 7th grade dreams.
They were so real.
She wanted to be a tattoo/FBI agent/hula dancer.
He wanted to be a military man.
She wanted to be cool.
And she just wanted to giggle all the time.
I just wanted to be an author. Still do.
After 7th grade they moved away. B
ut to this day sitting on my shelf is a tape ball.
Inside that tape ball there is a paper and it reads:
It all started with some paper,
Some duct tape, a dream,
And a tangerine.
