Theme: In playground of imagination
In my playground of imagination, I think about the game dodge ball and all the skeptical, harmful, things I dodged in life I think about hopscotch, as I hopped over hurdles, laughed at the outcome I think of the game capture the flag and I cherish the dreams I captured I remember my pink hula hoop, as I learned to swing it I surely went on dancing in my life, loving music so much I think of the jungle gym I climbed and all the hurdles I mastered later I think of croquet on the back lawn with the flowers nearby I went on to cherish open space of green grass and fields Oh, the merry-go-round that had my mind spinning around I never liked that feeling then or now or anything like it I remember being on the swing, going as high as I could It is just like when I fly today, reaching for all I want to achieve My fun playground was my play time and taught me many lessons My playground was an escape from things that I didn't like It spread to many games, many places from then until now My playground helped me mentally sculpture life with so many good things Playing will never stop; I will always imagine what can happen I will always know what can grow from seeds in my playground Heidi Sands 4/10/25
