Taboo Inspired

Frolicking with tiny scouts, back yard comradery Dozens of dizzying turns taken, careening down slide Fondly odd, peer conspiring, first concious memory Excited friends' squeals by bemused parents heard Elation in my veins bubbled, bliss effervescent tide Lifted spirit lunacy, day before my birthday, - third! Chubby climbing limbs, giggling at game outlawed Naughty thought conjured a single word, admired " Poo! Fart! Wee! Bottom!" declarers struck a chord Resuming rudeness sparked surprise, fits of hilarity Pass the pants down humour in toddlers transpired Taboo knew timid tame, beside preschool applaud 29th July 2020 Written for Contest : Minichu on an Innocent Childhood Memory (then discovered this has far too many syllables)!

Either you teach preschool or you have spent a lot of time with toddlers because you fully understand their sense of humor and the words that give them glee.
