Lovely Sound

I love the joyous sound
of the merry-go-round
sometimes I stare down
at the moving ground
my heart goes pound 
I’m the happiest in town 
when it goes around 
on it, I can’t be found
I notice it and start to mound 
my safe place don't hound
don’t make fun or clown
me and that ride are bound
cause I love the sound
of the sweet merry-go-round

The child in you stayed she so loved the merry go round! My inner child is still here too and would probably love riding the pretty horses with you, oh, the fun of choosing one! I got younger just reading this and I thank you for this. Hugs ... CayCay
