Town Children

Town Children

               out and about

                   playing

              out in the field;

           chasing butterflies

                  exploring

                  the world

                around them;

                      left to

                roam so free.

                 They exude

           youthful exuberance;

         their eyes full of wonder.

                       Such

              innocent darlings!




                    (Yalto)
