A Childs World Poem by james d nall,jr

Running down the sidewalk on a hot summer day
Trying to find my friends, so we can all play
Maybe army, cops and robbers or even hide and seek
From behind bushes, trees, cars and corners, we'll peek
Chasing each other, boys yelling and little girls screaming
Gives our young, innocent lives whole new meanings
Stealing barbie dolls and putting kens clothes on them
The girls are so mad, giving us looks so grim
Taking turns pulling each other in wagons
Huffing and puffing like little dying dragons
Making our castles in the sand
While the girls have tea parties that are so grand
Cooling off in the little plastic pool, splashing away
Tomorrow, will be very much like this day
Too bad, we can't spend our lives, so carefree
The world would have been a better place, for you and me
