Two Lenses Unchanged

Two Lenses - Unchanged When I was young and foolish I’d do things not quite schoolish. My naked feet danced barefoot in the rain splashing in water running toward the drains until grams admonished me on my childish ways. Today, I am always wearing socks and shoes careful outside where my feet may get bruised, but in the warm spring storms and rainy days I stand at the door and watch the children play whose simplistic innocence restores my youth.
