A Happy Day

In mind's eye I reminisce, watching children play of a spring day sitting here, seeing my children play blessed to see their smiles, when they hit, slid or fell A happy day begin playing ball, in this story I will tell A kiss and hug I get, dad please take us to the fair Seeing the rides, ooh's, awe's echo from our pair Eating fried dough, peanuts, "Boy! see the games over there" We're playing with family and friends, as they make a dare Can't miss any ride that twists, mixes, spins or flys in the air There's so much to see, ride and play with, in a day at the fair Hearing "thanks mom and dad" that night, walking to the car "Stay awake" they say as we move, you know they can't get far This day all started with thoughts of fun, smiles and laughs both asleep, with their dreams, today, mom and dad can laugh PD: Any poem you posted during this month of* APRIL ~except ~ No!

Yes, I withdrew this poem and entered "Happy is a child" if that's ok? I wanted to do more work on this poem.
