Simplicity of a Child Sittin' staring at the sun Watching children play and run Remembering way back when A time I used to laugh with them Simplicity of the mind Seeking all there was to find Innocence came so true Curiosity over due The smell of spring danced in the air Though I didn't even think to care Tomorrow seemed so far away Living life by the day Then clouds came drifted by Releasing tears from the sky Security no longer mine Casting doubt from time to time And as the days turned into years Facing all my inner fears Sittin' staring at the sun Watching children play and run |

Being a memere I must say the best time of the day is when I sit and play with Ben and Molly....their hugs and laughter bring such joy to my heart. Then clouds came drifted (drifting) by thought drifting read easier to me....just a suggestion on my part of course.......your words are so true to life and images of my own past came bursting forth.. for whatever reason anxiety set into my life it stayed with me for well over fifteen years.....not much laughter then but lots of fear...thanks for posting, God Bless, Claire
