My Inner Child

My inner child,
has always been lots of fun.
My creativity and my imagination,
have always loved to play together.
As a child waking up in the middle of the night,
I would play by the nightlight with my inner child creativity~~imagination.
I was growing up,
as my inner child was growing up.
I never could out grow my inner child,
my inner child creativity~~imagination was here to stay.
Now older,
I still have my inner child my creativity~~imagination.
My inner child,
still loves the ways of being young.
A swing ride~picnic in the park~cotton candy,
crayons and a book~just laughing until my sides ache.
My inner child my creativity~~imagination,
have refused to grow up.
Could I be related to "Peter Pan,"
like him I do not want to ever grow up.

Never grow up Paula, we may change our appearance on the outside, but the inner child stays a child for all time. Love your poem… Belle
