Wild Child

Sunset smiles of a wild child
Running barefoot through the Nile
Not a care in the world not a fear
Heart is a pearl of love and cheer

This poem truly spans the ages, methinks. It could have been in the times of the Pharaohs, or even today in some parts of Egypt! Amazing how you made this happen, Karen. Huzzah! :) gw

Happiness in childhood gives us the best memories. I enjoy the foreign scenery that comes to mind.

I know but it is nice to write about the blessed kids. In my write 20/20 Is Hindsight I write about the opposite!

Light and full of imagery. Does the Nile present danger amidst her innocence? Very nice, Karen!
