Tavi's Deal

"Lemonade for sale"

"Lemonade for sale"

He shouts out with such glee

With such expectancy

No matter that his little stand

Sits at the end of a quiet

And sleepy little street

A cul-de-sac and not a cut-through

No matter that there's few

Who can even hear

Should they stop and listen

"Lemonade for sale"

He repeats with boldness

With delightwith conviction

Never doubting the people will come

Convinced his cry is an invitation

Every passer-by has long awaited

"Lemonade for sale"

Perhaps his earnest plea

Will capture an ear or two

Perhaps that one will drop his hoses and rakes

Another stop their mowinganother cease their cleaning

They'll look up from their TV's and monitors

Turn off the ballgameput down the paper

One by one they'll stop, listen and look

At the wide-eyed child as he hopefully cries:

"Lemonade for sale

Lemonade and cookies25 cents"

Are you weary from the heat of the day?

Do come and witness a miracle

That will chase all your weariness away.

Do you have a thirst heavy from labor?

Do stop by and taste

A sweetness reserved only for the angels.

No. not the lemonade,

Though there is nothing quite as sweet

As lemonade stand lemonade!

And 25 cents a small price to pay

To watch a child's face light up with joy.

Nocome and taste the sweetest of all things!

Sweeter than the drink he confidently offers

Come and witness the glorious miracle

Not a soul in sight, yet, not a shadow of a doubt

Come and taste come and see

The faith of a child!
