EFFERVESCENT

Happy New Year Cosmo!

Lively are the bubbles
bubbling up and down
like the girl I once was,
effervescent in my pink gown

Life told me a thing or two
and too serious a girl I grew,
until one day I decided                                                 
to play with my inner child                            
and keep her young
till I am too old to play
                        
Then I shall see her dancing
In the corner of my smile
held in the arms of time.

   --Bernadete vdw, ‘24

Pinned, although I must admit I've never really understood what the pin is used? One day I'll go through them all

Thank you Rory. Yes, I know what you mean.
I don't pin. Not because I am a snob, but because I am not on the social media. The only place I am is here at Cosmo. So much for ''protecting my privacy". Lol !
Happy New Year to you!
Bernadete

Dear Bernadette,

As usual, you have created a "real corker". 
You are not alone, when it comes to welcoming in the New Year, that many of us cling to the years of our youth, ruing some decisions, which with today's hindsight, we never would have made.
Bravo!  I toast to your talent!  
Happy New Year!

Well, theinner child will never die nor stop dancing, even whrn we ourselves are long gone from this world. It will just hop from person to person in thewildest, most beautiful or sadly for some darkest dreams as the IC will always love life instead of killing for money. So yes, you too are eternal 💯
