Back Again Not Simple ways, trouble-free times unadorned as the black/white mime beckoning ways, calling me back my troubles yet to be unpacked. Comforting life, time without care dreaming me hither, do I dare look around at that time, and wish to be a little one, a child of three? At that age, just surviving loving, laughing, simply thriving on all of nature’s whimsical ways old seasoned age still at bay. A blonde-haired innocent with fresh eyes of green everything to be spent everything to be seen. No, I guess I’d much rather be here when my grandchild turns just three and watch with him all the delights and imagine again all the sights that he sees now, for the first time like an unadorned black/white mime I’ll help, be there, his guiding light, and tuck him in, safe at night. 1 September, 1999 ©KRJ ------------------ Sunshine Words will always express our feelings true. ~~~ KRJ Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Looking back is good.. but the future looks better. I liked your poem. ------------------ Teardrops, like the Dew that kisses the Rose each morning, seem to evaporate, only to return with each accusation that falls from your lips. |

Looking back can be a good thing, but seeing the past as it is created through the eyes of a child sounds a lot better. Nice thought and a nice poem Sunshine. |

I can really relate to this. I love seeing the world thru my granddaughter's eyes. What a refreshing way to play ------------------ Words lay dormant in the recesses of the mind til called forth to a labor of love. By WildChild |
