Never grow up!

Never grow up!

A smile a tide wide as I'm happy, they say I've ants in my pants but I can't see them
I'm the joker and king of my castle, they say I have odd socks on yet I can't feel them
I race around on my bike chasing what I think is a kite
But it's just me and my imagination being joyful with life

I hear the shouting indoors, that I don't like, so I go outside with my ball and kick it against graffiti walls
I don't need to understand how to be all grown up, for I'm still a child, let me enjoy childish games
With the sound of the ice cream van swirling into my street, I race upto my house and my mam yells "here's 50 pence get yourselves a treat!"

With a fun game of tiggy and a cheeky game of catchy kissy, we whistled at the girls playing a game of queeny queeny
With a new pair of shoes I could run like the blistering wind, but I still got caught playing knocky nine doors as a happy little kid
Lying down finding animals in the sky, I seen dog's, dragon's and I even saw a crocodile!

Now I am 35 and still a childish fan
Never growing up just like Peter pan
Although I don't wear the green tights and feathered hat
I laugh most days and still smile like the Cheshire cat
So I'm still a happy child
Don't tell me to grow up
I'm too big , and I can't hide
But that's just me and my devilish mind!

?? thanks very much jack! Very kind words from one child to another! ?? I'm happy that you pinpointed that part out! Because we should still let kids be kids even if technology challenges that, it's how we raise them and guide them to be less stressed, and certainly less of a grown up so quick! Thanks for your kind words, poet friend! ?
