Laughing at nothing much at all Being BIG but wanting to be small Talking like a child acting the fool Wishing I was back in school Running through fields, falling head over heals Skinning your knee, remembering how it feels Rollerblading down the road, acting like a fool Dancing to music, thinking I was so cool My chilhood memories I wish to open up Catch that free spirit, run a muck We all have it in us to be like a child Free and easy, running wild Why can't we let everyone see The child that's inside you and me  Keep all the windows of your mind open Anne Rooks |

Perhaps our child is not inside but merely part of what is outside a mask to look at in the mirror to look into the past who knows beautiful poem Hello darkness, my old friend, I've come to talk with you again, Because a vision softly creeping, Left its seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence. |

This is like a piece I wrote, called “ when did we stop playing tag” I teach on occasions small children, and I make sure I play tag with them. Thank you for the memories Joel. |

You mean I'm not supposed to be running amuck still? LOL Na, I don't think I will ever stop being my inner child. Good reminder to us all, though. Thanks tracie. Michael |

Hey i really like this, thank you for writing it in response to my challenge. The child in us thrives only if we let it. I say let it wings spread freely and glide ever so gently though the winds of life. There's a peace inside us all Let it be your friend It will help you carry on In the end There's a peace inside us all -Creed |

Very nice piece. Sometimes it seems like we're forced to grow up too fast and it's times when we stop to dance to the music or run a muck that are the best. Thanks!  |

Walter~ Perhaps you are right, thanks so much for your reply Joel~ So glad I could bring back some memories for you and what a rewarding job teaching littlies Michael~ I hope you do run a muck still, it's great isn't and I hope I don't stop being that kid either  Sea~ Well that's my inner child for you, it used to be rollerskates as a teen now I'm 33 and it's rollerblades for me  I'm glad someone else has kids who think they're silly, my daughter thinks i'm crazy.By the way my birthday is in November as well, I'm a scorpio. Baerlon~ Well said my friend I agree Caitlin~ Thanks for your wonderful reply, they are the best times aren't they Thanks to all Tracie~ Keep all the windows of your mind open Anne Rooks |

Wonderful. Brings back my childhood memories playing with my friends from across the street*although it isn't that far back to remember..about 12 yearsLOL* Great Post! The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship." --Ralph Waldo Emerson |
