with capers, japes and adventures,
boats and well stocked picnics, we lived
a back street life. With a sock and masking tape ball

Smoke
...Peanut butter sarnies
Wacky baccy smoke
Hysterical laughter
At an unfunny joke
Colours so intense

Its Christmas
...The sleepy eyes,
the excited cries,
the whoops and hollers
and the early rise.
The stampede downstairs,
the jumping on chairs,
the ooh's and aah's
