 DREAM COME TRUE

————————————

 for, you know who

Family

Try to get three berries

Off one stem at rest stop

As three of us

Far From Town

That delicate

Held bag from

The donut shop

Tip-Toe

Summer dress

Covers you

Barely

We

I wanted the

Longest kiss —

So we began

Always the Way

She peeks in my window

But she is so pretty

I’m already peeking out

The Little Things

Snowy months —

A bird call

Means a bunch

Notorious

He’s the town crazy

And we’ve been in town only five seconds

And he’s found us

Remember

Some dogs

Follow you —

Some don’t
