Little Boys

Little boys in caps Dirt on their seat, Puppies in their laps Toy cars at their feet Dirt on their seat Baseball at their side, Toy cars at their feet Sneaker laces untied Baseball at their side Cars in red and blue, Sneaker laces untied Puppy wants attention, too Cars in red and blue Go round until dark, Puppy wants attention, too Hear him happily bark Go round until dark Puppies in their laps, Hear him happily bark Little boys in caps.

I've just mentioned in my latest poem about pantoum which is a difficult form for me but you wrote this gorgeous one excellently with ease my dear poet friend Kelly. Your poem is a great inspiration for me to write one. As far as I remember, when I'd my first attempt to write, I'd many errors. A delightful and fantastic poem on a happy childhood of boys. I love this gem and I've enjoyed reading it. Thanks a lot for sharing. God bless you and your writings. Hugs

Dear Kelly, A true heartwarming ode to the joys of childhood innocence and the simple pleasures that bring boundless happiness. Your poem beautifully captures the playful spirit of young boys, with their caps, dirt-covered seats, and beloved toys. The poem captures the carefree days filled with laughter and companionship, where even the family puppy finds its place among the cherished moments. A delightful glimpse into the world of little boys and the magic they bring to our lives. - Daniel
