Little Old Me On My Own

Having been brought up an only child spent a lot of my time on my own lived in the country with no one around but learned to be content so very alone I had many toys to amuse myself with really loved to play in my little bedroom tractors trailers cows sheep all around plastic they were but made me to bloom Really liked the outdoors too played on swings across the road kicked a ball to my hearts content no particular skill as it showed But I did enjoy these young days learning to amuse myself as a kid looking back on them pleasurably having few regrets in all I did

Nice poetry well written and composed. Takes me back a few years remembering my childhood days. Even when I was out in the fields with my mom I would get bored. I was real young then and couldn't pick the grapes or cotton but my mom taught to look up into the clouds and imagine. I could see all kinds of things up there.
