Thoroughly Poetic Pictorial Thursday #85

oday we join Two  SPOILED CATS 
Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.



First Date
True Story

When I was eight, a boy asked if I like
milkshakes. Yes I replied, he said well its a date!
A What...I said.
No worries he said I have a plan in my head.
I'll have my mom call your mom
What....I said
A plan was made, a time was set.
When we were leaving the house, Daddy asked
where are you going?
I said, I have a date
A What...he said
I replied he is buying  me a 'shake.
Gotta go Daddy
I can't be late.
The Mom's were gonna have coffee at a booth
while we ordered shakes at the fountain.
When you are eight,
you are too short to straddle the stool.
So we sat in the booth while the mom's straddled the stools.
He ordered our shakes, we giggled and slurped trying to make
crazy sounds.
'Cause when you are eight that makes for a fun date.
I only went to this school for one more year.
 I lost track of this boy; however, I'm pretty darn sure he 
continued to charm the girls with offers of dates to get shakes.
