You in that blue hoodie,
Smile at me, I feel as if I could fly
I could dance on cotton clouds forever

You in that green hoodie,
Smell of pine and earthy ground
We plant in the garden together

You in that red hoodie,
On your first date with me, I am beaming
We sail and glide effortlessly in sync

You in that gray hoodie,
Look tired and worn to the bone,
You and I sit on the porch in the yard

You in those hoodies,
Make my days fill with color,
Now we are 90ty and are looking,
at memories from long ago
