Your clothes were made with this, by someone dear to you.
That feeling of betrayal when you found sewing stuff in one of these.
A Polly Pocket that you could bring around to show your friends.
When you found the name of someone you knew on the library card:
This was precious to you.
One of the family games you used to play together when you were younger
The TV cabinet with glass doors you needed to push to open to reach the VCR
You watched 3D movies with these bad boys.
All the shows that made you laugh during your childhood
Somebody in your family used to hog the house phone.
The desperation to have these and the hugs you gave your parents for the treat
Wilma and Fred were your vitamins.
When iPod video held your favorite shows for long trips:
The fun of writing with one of these
That yearbook quote you wish you could change
Instead of a smartphone or iPad, you read the cereal box.
This was what used to wake you up in the morning.
As long as you had her and her cherry scent, you were not lonely.
You made mix tapes for long trips and for your crushes
So many in one! A Brownie uniform, a Cabbage Patch doll, and that familiar couch
