Sounds of Childhood


The sounds of my childhood

Echoes into my adulthood

I wish I could, I wish I would

Revisit the joys of childhood.


Joy and laughter without a care

Finding fun everyday, anywhere

No need to buy or spend anything

Only to share it with a good, true friend.


No need to carry a safety net

I actually lived without this and that

Never needed a hand sanitizer to go

Even drank water from the garden hose.


Now we are all so high maintenance

No wonder we lack self confidence

We depend more on gadgets than on friends

And we fail to each other comprehend.
