Poem -
Childhoods Year
Buds awaking, green returning
April showers, birds aā worming,
Children skipping puddles learning
how to get feet wet!
Skies are bluer, gray days fewer
burning sun and scorching skin.
Suncream slathered, sunburn hazard
playing in the midday sun!
Cracking leaves, deciduous trees
fruits abundant, harvest done.
Children foraging the hedgerows
eating berries, autumn fun!
Snow is drifting, flakes Ā are falling
Building snowmen, children calling
Icy slides to break an arm on
Childhoods year has come and gone.

Thanks so much Nigel..It's sometimes tough to see the light at the end of the tunnel at present ..but trying to see a normalĀ year through a kids eyes actually cheered me up! I hope you are keep well and safe Sir Nigel..sorry I haven't been around much but poor old hubby has had quite serious post Covid health problems but now seems to have turned a corner- so optimism is in the air once again!Ā Sending you all sorts of good things my friend xx
Oh Lady Lodigiana we are all kinda f***ed at the moment. So glad to hear that your husband is on the mend.
WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS.Ā
Thanks again my friendĀ

This is such a lovely poem! Children grow up so quickly and each and every year is different for them. This is like a snapshot of a child's year. And it is written in a very child friendly way. I do like poems that are easy to understand!Ā x
Thank you so much for your lovely words! I know just what you mean when you say you like poems that are easy to understand..so do I ..so often I read something and struggle to understand just what it's saying..when you speak from the heart then I think the words connect and give it meaning. Thanks again xx
I really enjoyed this poem. Fun times for every season. It made me feel as though I were a child again:)
HiĀ Susan, isn't it lovely to sometimes be transported back to a simpler andĀ gentler time..childhood is a wonderful eraĀ to live through and although I know we should grow up - how wonderful not to!..maybe we are all Peter Pan at heart?... Thank you so much for reading and I'm really happy you enjoyed it. xx
Lodigiana, there is it seems nothing you cant accomplish and conceive when writing poetry.
A beautiful poem lovingly presented and one to reach out and rekindle our younger and happier, innocent days.
You take any theme and delicately weave enchantment around it.
Beautiful and breath taking to view.
Thank you for showing me how to write and from your always generous spirited heart.
Take care and I wish you well my poetic friend.
Shaun.x.
