Creative Challenge: Playtime (A Sonnet)



Is there ever as much joy as playtime?

We romp, we roll we laugh and we giggle

Does not matter night time or in daytime

Run and jump scream and shout laugh and hop spin and wiggle

 

When we go out on a summer like day

Our thoughts are free our intents are fun

Only a child can know the glee of play

The sheer wonder of faces in the sun.

 

But there is a time to come in and rest

One more jump and one more run and in

We must accept that Mom know best

First a bath then hair put up in a pin

 

     As we say our prayers at our beside

     We thank God for all our playtime outside.

  2. Strange as it may seem....Your words take me back to another time....childhood, carefree days.

    No wonder we are constantly reminded in our adult years that if you wish to be happy....'keep it simple'
