Playground Closing

Last days at the playground Kiddies squealing with delight Before the rangers take down swings And cover the merry-go-round With waterproof canvassing. Tots return to their playrooms at home And dream of Santa Claus's bounty Which will come, but seems forever-- Seemed forever when I was a kid. written September 27, 2021

Yep, I think we all do. School's out and Christmas would simply never come!
