I Sit and Wish I Was a Kid Again

As bill’s begin, to create a mountain My son also creates a fort out of them as well My wife is worried in tears as she goes into work I lost my job, so I am Mr. Daddy day care today As my son whom is 3 years old poops with a smile I smile back and I sit and wish I was a kid again. No worries of a wonder, just smiles of fun Cartoons and video games and sticky sweets Bicycle riding and play grounds with monkey bars Movies and popcorn and a soda pop was a treat Late night dreams linked to fairy tales of animals I sit and wish I was a kid again. As the night comes and my son is fast asleep My wife is sleep faced in her work at her desk as well I tip toe to the living room and turn on the tele Tip toe to the kitchen and grab a big bowl and spoon Grab my favorite cereal “Waffle Crisp” Then the milk rains down onto the spoon. I sit and wish I was a kid again.
