Thoughts of a Child
THOUGHTS OF A CHILD
by Tina Lasley
I remember being a child
So innocent and carefree
Imagining myself grown up
Wondering what I would be
What would I look like
What kind of car would I drive
Would I be a Mom
Or a career would I strive
Would I meet Prince Charming
Live happily ever after
Would I have a happy life
Filled with lots of laughter
What kind of house would I live in
Would it be big or small
Would money be sufficient
Or would I have not much at all
Sitting in the shade
Or enjoying the afternoon sun
My mind was always thinking
As the other kids would play and run
I never once imagined
How things really turned out to be
Oh, to be a child again
So innocent and carefree
