Anyway

Anyway Was just strolling down the street Minding my own P’s and Q’s Whatever they are When….well… Nothing happened!! I just stood there Amazed Watching a group of children PLAY… You know….PLAY Run, jump, laugh, chase each other Play soccer without nets Without refs Without parental supervision. OH!...the parents were there Watching Biting their lips Grimacing at each collision Sighing at each missed… WAIT….there was no goal!!! Only the joy Of children….being children And of parents Allowing them that JOYFULNESS. A few knees were scraped A few feelings fluffed up All were forgotten In the savory coolness Of ice cream And a garden hose shower.
