The Red-Haired Girl

Like Charlie Brown, I once was captivated by a red-haired girl.

 

Charlie Brown and I,

A lot alike are we;

To often stand and dream

And think about the red-haired girl,

So beautiful is she.

 

Charlie Brown and I

Are not coy or cautious,

But just a little shy;

For when we see the red-haired girl,

Away all courage flies.

 

Charlie Brown and I

Though doubts around us swirl,

I wish the same as he:

To ask the little red-haired girl,

"Will you go out with me?"

 

That's Charlie Brown and I.

 

(Feb. 1987)

A shyness most of us have, presented in the child's perspective.
