Life could be as easy, as making a snowman in the yard

Or playing in the fallen snow, and skating on the pond

But somehow things are different, and life can be so hard

Just remember to keep living, in the now and far beyond

The Leaf Pile

autumn, Children, leaves, Night Owl Poetry, playing, poems, poetry, raking, The Leaf Pile

Gather leaves, fallen down
Pile them high, above the ground
Into a stack, up to the sky
Are you ready to watch them fly?

Run at full speed, jump right in
Feet first, diving, do it again!
Toss the leaves, into the air
Laugh and play without a care

 

We all need a reminder of our childhood days every once in awhile.  I have fond memories of jumping in leaf piles, although I’m pretty sure my dad didn’t find it amusing.  On this Throw Back Thursday, I hope this reminded you of your childhood, too….
