Pedal-Pushers

My aunt complained, “It’s cold down here!”

(In Florida, she meant.)

The shorts she wears against the chill

Would not have made a dent.


“Put on some  pants,” I told her

But she found what’s in-between

And so her pedal-pushers,

Not Capris, have made the scene.


It’s nice to hear the lingo

From the past get a new lease.

I wonder if those pedal-pushers

Live in her valise.
