One Day

One day
One 8th-grade basketball player meets
One team challenge –
One to dress up each Game Day.

One mother fills number-one son's
One request of
One button down shirt by finding
One BIG clearance-rack bargain because
One wonders: Will he ever wear it again?

One son grabs
One "flashy" tie from dad's tie rack.

One dad teaches number-one son how to tie
One half-windsor knot.

One number-two son laughs off his pants seeing
One big bro all dressed up.
One big bro spouts: You're just jealous!

One 8th-grade basketball player turns to
One mirror – eyes himself and says:

Sophisticated!

One mother rolls her eyes – amazed...

Sophisticated?

One mother utters: I never thought I'd see this One Day.

One dad sputters:
One needs a few whiskers before THAT
One Day.
