  • Gary Soto
OrangesThe first time I walkedWith a girl, I was twelve,Cold, and weighted downWith two oranges in my jacket.
  • I smiled,
Touched her shoulder, and ledHer down the street, acrossA used car lot and a lineOf newly planted trees,Until we were breathingBefore a drugstore.
  • I fingered
A nickle in my pocket,And when she lifted a chocolateThat cost a dime,I didn’t say anything.
  • Outside,
A few cars hissing past,Fog hanging like oldCoats between the trees.
