Little Girl Poem by Concetta Salter

Let me be a kid again. Where ignorance was bliss.
Give me just one moment. Just one moment to relive.
Give me back the days of fun, without a single care.
Give me back the day’s in which, I never did once fear.
Give me back those happy day’s, when life was full of fun.
Give me back the friends I had, and give me back the sun.
Give me back the carelessness of climbing tall, tall trees.
Give me back the little girl who still believed in dreams.
Give me back the times in which I’d sneak for midnight snacks.
Give me back the little girl who thought these times would last.
Give me back the hide and seek, the dancing in the rain.
Give me back the little girl who’s laugh was never faked.
Give me back the little girl who cared not what she wore.
Give me back the little girl who did not judge the world.
Give me back the little girl who use to wish on stars.
Give me back the little girl who had no broken heart.
Give me back the little girl, if only for a day.
Let me be that girl again. I beg.. I plead… I pray…
