Reminisce

Walking near the old schoolyard these ears can hear a child's laughter HARD Voices of my friends YESTERDAY Our world was young as we continued to play Semesters, to the study hall and BASKETBALL in the gym The LUNCH ROOM where the pizza was served and after that..CHOCOLATE COOKIES for desert 1:00 and RECESS fun quarter of two and our day is almost done FRIENDS to go home with SLEEPOVERS for the night I still recollect, about the joy we found that night innocence then, never became that way again I never became the jock or funny clown when puberty hit JUNIOR HIGH put me down To accept the good as well the taunting I GO BACK NOW,to the faces that are HAUNTING That was then,my friend.. AND THIS IS NOW at 36 and counting!!
