Long Ago On A Lawn Poem by Susan Lacovara
Long Ago On A Lawn
We didn't know better
Back then
How time would chase our dreams
Change them
Alter us
Divide our days
Into sections
And slices
Must Dos
And Must Haves
And a million
Maybe another times
You were just the boy across the lawn
When summers were still long
And the grass was wet
Beneath our bare feet
Back then, my friend
Back then
Who would surmise
The imaginary mountains
We climbed as kids
Having nothing better to do
Would turn to mountains of bills
Receipts to file
And schedules to keep
While still in the same shift of seasons
You never aged in my heart
You never went gray
You're still the same old smiling boy
Whose door I knocked on
'Come out and play'
You never aged in my heart You never went gray You're still the same old smiling boy Whose door I knocked on 'Come out and play' A great poem by the poet. I agree with you Rani. Trespassing into this zone for commenting as the comment box is not at all working today.
