Remember the awareness excitements of being a kid? Without measuring, most things appeared bigger than they actually were and more important too. Friendly giants offered rescues of helping hands and imaginative zippidy do dahs invented loyal oaths between pals. Times seemed simple and enchantments effusive. It was the easiest and most natural thing to wish for stuff you didn’t have to share.
Go figure. Growing up was what happened to the bigger wishes compromised by relativity of size. Small stuff could be great stuff and large stuff could honestly be trivial stuff. One challenge of thinking young is to keep your eyes open wide enough to appreciate life’s good stuff. Another is to create ways to good heartedly acquire your true heart’s desire for bigger stuff.
WOODSY SADIE
Girl meets Boy.
She asks him to go for a walk in the woods
Because
they would have been great kids together
sugar smacking lickity lips
while marching innocently backwards
hugging wind, outsmarting weather
they would have been great kids together
whoever had money would pay to play for
having a forever share of great times together.
They may have chosen to stay in the woods
as long as they could
pretending scoops of pine needle heaps
were really beds, couches and chairs.
We would have been great kids together
Your tell is you’re effortlessly funny
We’d choose winning sides to up our game
Acting all carefree and happy.
Meanwhile…
We are all kinds of great kids together
it’s no big deal, holding hands into the kiss
Tag, you’re it! And I called it first.
Dibs on front seat shotgun.
Don’t get shook cuz I made you look
See you tomorrow, same place and same time.
