Do you remember downing that red drink?
Sometimes, we'd purchase gallons that were pink.
Those flavors remind me of summer breaks.
When we dreamt of going swimming at lakes.
Sometimes, that thought would seep into stories.
Imagine lakeside laboratories.
Or witches' huts with hanging animal masks.
I'd pretend that red drink was inside flasks.
My imagination transformed a lot.
As a child, it gave way to lots of thought.
