[hometext] => I remember my playground.. everything was simple and pure.. And now i think about my life and how sad and compilcated it has become... So sad.. but anyways.. please tell me what you think...
[bodytext] => It started off as a simple place You know, just a playground across the street Where we’d jump and skate and race Greeting the neighbors that we’d meet Feeling the grass between our toes And the wind blowing through our hair Press a flower to your nose Living life without a care And on the swings we’d go so high Swearing one day we’d flip over that rail Feeling as if we could truly fly Through the air we’d glide and sail Oh, how many times did we skin a knee? Or burn ourselves on that hot slide? And the games we’d play, you and me Like the one where you’d seek and I’d go hide Around and around on the tire swing Intoxicated by the swirls Giggling and joking about everything Running from the boys as they chased the girls Splashing through the waterfall From the sprinkler on a summer’s day And we’d always make the biggest snowballs Whenever winter came our way On those lovely days in spring Picking flowers with a friend And what fun autumn would bring Piling up the leaves, then diving in On a bench under a tree While joggers dash around the track Submerged in tranquility No threats, no worries, no looking back Guys playing basketball over here Girls playing hopscotch over there The ice cream truck is always near Cheer and laughter fill the air Take me back to that special place Where happiness is the only rule Where the sun shines upon your face Where the world is never cruel We’ll step barefoot in the sand And feel the wonder all around Together we’ll proceed, hand in hand Let’s go back to our playground [comments] => 1 [counter] => 151 [topic] => 32 [informant] => Brandyx7 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )
