My Wonderful Youth

In yesterday of yore, tangled in solicitous love I was once a child. Laughter and Joy Fairy tales and toys. I wondered why..the sun was yellow. Books, papers, pens and crayons. I wondered why....the sky was blue. Pebbles, sticks, sand and clay. I wondered why... clouds were white. Cookies, muffins, cakes and candy. I wondered why... butterflies danced. Running, Cycling, playing in courtyard. I wondered... so many why's.... The day light kindred dramas... The dark night film theatres.. Reality apparelled in Adventures and Action . Wind of dreams in my heart.. Fire of fear in my mind... I stepped into the bridge of teenage. I could see on the other side far away A sceptical Adult... I just wondered why.... I could no longer throw a tantrum and cry. 2nd December, 2018 Submitted to the My Youth Poetry Contest Sponsor Craig Cornish
