I remember friends from childhood who didn't have it so easy. The older brother of my best friend beat her up all the time. And her day laid into her with a belt...
I guess what I'm saying is, we think kids are carefree, but many times they are not.
Thanks Magical Mystical Teacher for your interesting comment. There are always two sides to everything. However, I conveyed my childhood in verse and that was incredibly joyful and carefree and life flowed easily for me.
Ah! Life did flow easily. Nostalgia is such!
ReplyDeleteIt sure did. Thanks Leo.
