I remember times that weren’t so bad,
When I was young and no one seemed sad.
I went to the zoo with my loved ones,
I never expect what would end, the fun.
I played with neighbors , life long friends,
But soon the friendships had to end.
I loved the sports that I could play,
Now I can’t play them everyday
Something happened, somewhere, somehow,
All I can do is wonder now.
Where the times of childhood went,
They seem to have been cut and bent.
Laughter no longer fills my day,
And sometimes the opposite comes my way.
I barely remember the fun I had,
And the times when I was glad.
But sometimes a glimsp of childhood fun,
comes into the life of one.
One who wishes for the time,
Of such laughter and such rhyme.
Someday I hope that I will see,
All the things I used to be.
But if these things never come to me,
Atleast I’ll have the memory

Welcome to Passions, Ree Ree  

     Nice read.  It kinda made me think of the times I use to smile more.  Of course I was ALOT younger then with less stress and problems.  But as you wrote, we will always have the ........memories!

this is beautiful again...actually, this is beautiful for the first time.  I read your post in teen #5 first, so i'm a little turned around, but i really like your style and general poetic aura.  i hope to see a lot from you in the future!
