The Changed Children

Looking thru the eyes of a child is a challenge I adore, surely it can’t be that difficult coz I have been there before.. yet those childhood years of mine were Oh so long ago, back in the days of old almost six decades ago I know, when life ticked along old fashionedly, kids used to play out in the street with their elder sister’s clothes on, clip clopping in their tiny feet

There was nothing nicer than wearing Mother’s high heel shoes, my Mam only had one pair so there wasn’t any to choose.. but I used to pinch my sisters when she wasn’t around, tho I tried my best not to scuff them on the hard, stoney ground.. Haha hasn’t a child’s life changed with the online media taking over making matters deranged..well I say deranged because it rhymed with my verse but in truthfulness online media can be a abit of a curse.. nothing is sacred anymore, everybody knows everyone’s business without even walking out their front door

Mind you children don’t know no better, it’s simply the way that things are, born into an age of technology, for them nothing is bizzare.. as they sit lost in their bubbles staring at the gadgets in the hand, trawling thru the internet on their little finger’s command.. talking to their friends miles away on twitter, facebook and whatapp without moving a muscle with their tablet on their lap..they are born in different times with new age machinery, never playing outside like I did, I wonder do they appreciate the scenery?
