Happy Together

She went to the dress shop
for the third time in a month;
it was one of those in the neighborhood
right down the street dress shops
that sold slightly used clothing,
yet upon its racks she  always found
the most beautiful dresses that fit
her perfectly in small size,
and it was so much fun to surprise
her boyfriend and see the smiles
upon his face when she wore these
(new) dresses, and hear the things
he would say; like, "Wow honey, that
dress looks so nice on you, like it
was made just for you." or "You know
you missed your calling, you should have
been a model.", and he would always give
her the nicest hug and the sweetest kiss
that made her feel like a million bucks,
and the dress only cost her peanuts, and
everytime they were together they would smile
so much because they both appreciated each
other and were so happy together.

Happy Together

Imagine me and you, I do
I think about you day and night
its only right,
to think about the girl you love
and hold her tight,
so happy together.

The Turtles, 1984

Just on my way out the 'door' JM when I saw your title. Being one who always liked the Turtles, it rang quick and loud in its beckoning.

Now I can go with a smile and a warm fuzzy feeling instead of leaving the lights on and slamming the door.


Big 88's on a really good write.

She told me "play one for your supper Danny and maybe you'll get breakfast".
