Gleaming midst the green of forest Secret in the woods mature Tall as childhood remembers Through the seasons to endure Rung by rung a little nearer Stepping up to see the sights Touching high growth, seeing clearer All around from dizzied heights Smiles broken at the offset As the ones of long ago Tall the feeling comes to claim me Come to grips with trips below In the thought of slickly going Body set and ready…go That awaits, the journey knowing Whisked away of all I know Gleaming mighty in the forest Secrets brought into the light Tall as childhood remembers Sped away too fast all right Copyright Kkh 6/1/03 |

TD, This is wonderful. You know, I have a 4 year old little girl who is extemely active. We go to the park and she wants mama to swing and slide with her. Sometimes I am tired and just want to be the spectator, but she has a way of prodding (nice word for nagging, LOL) but I have some fun, girl! I get to relive my childhood with my playmate, my own little, Macy girl. What is so funny is she looks just like me when I was little and she is one heck of a ball of energy. So, it is kind of like playing with the child me. Make sense? We have the grandest times. Have to wonder who has more fun, Macy or Mama??? Your words are always so perfect. Patricia |
