Those Days

I miss those days of hopscotch Doing handstands against the wall Skipping, riding bikes, running free Playing with friends…. having a ball! Those days of youthful exuberance and excitement Of joyful simplicity personified Not knowing back then its true beauty and value Until viewed through adult eyes

Thankfully I call still recall those good old days but sadly how I wish we could take time back. My children are almost my age and I often wonder if they are thinking like me...it would be so nice to have our childhood back. I enjoyed your poem. Thanks for the Reminder, I am old ! lol

You captured my heart with this one. A simple and clean write, bringing memory of simple and joyful times. A short piece with long reaching emotion. I truly enjoy your work, words and wisdom. Darrell
