Cars

Pleasure miles, saving time, blackberry picking

A bowl of kibble, Christmas dinner, exotic spaghetti

An unpaid bill, a meeting on the monkey bars, a trip to the bakery

Reading Goodnight Moon to a child, cross-country skiing at noon under a full moon, gasping at the sight of the ocean awash in moonlight

A packing-box playhouse, baseball cards, balls of ice

A dime for the pay phone, a $9.61 fine for a social-studies book, a parking ticket

Bubbling mineral waters, poison ivy, plastic dinosaurs

Freeing a lizard, reaching “full organ,” taking a day flight

Organ donation, birdcalls, lasagna

A crescent wrench, a moose, a coral reef
