Innocent

To dance, shout or sing a verse

To be anything, anyone you want to be…

An actor, a sailor, a princess or even a flea

To run so fast your lungs may burst.

Running for joy never to be first

To be a pirate on the stormy seas

To talk to the animals, goblins and fairies

On rich imaginations…we did thirst.

 

No bombs, no death or bloodshed

No starvation, disease or world domination

No poverty, no inequality or misery

No materials, money or politics on which to be fed

No crime, hatred or violation

I love those days endlessly
