Oh Very Young
the twilight sun has tainted my inner vision
was there something else you have been wishing
the fixture on the wall stood out
when I was young & alone
painting pictures in the clouds in vast formation
wallet, keys & pen
we ran through the open field puzzled
to look on the daisy with delight
pick grass and whirl it in the air
without a care in the world
the ice cream man came to are neighborhood
feeling really good
shoes, paper, pencil & chap stick
poison ivy in the woods
always desert alone in my room to myself
put another book back on the shelf
memories of the past
having so much fun with a hope that it would last
mother & father were happy
the family get together
a new toy at the store fresh wrapped in it's paper
the taste of a delicious cookie
sand box days with friends
must you leave us this time
a challenge to be free is a question of time
