The Good Old Days

ran down grassy slopes
looking for bleating lambs
chasing butterflies~
our world buoyant like bubbles
high up, dazzling rainbow hues.

The good old days of our youth when we didn't have a care in the world but as we get older our eyes are opened and realise that all is not well with the world. Good luck in the contest Valsa. Tom
