Young Once More

Let's pretend we're young once more,
Race each other to the shore.
Bury our feet in the sand,
No need for a spade, just use your hand.

Let's think back to younger days,
Climbing trees in the summer haze.
Rolling around in the sweet smelling grass,
How slowly time used to pass.

Let's remember the clothes we used to wear,
Get out those photos I simply can't bear.
Sing all the songs we used to write,
Under the covers by torchlight.

Let's remember that we can still do all that,
A birthday's just a cake and a silly hat.
Let's prove that age is just a number,
And wake our inner child from its slumber.

60.Age

Hello again, and today is Wednesday, November 14, 2012. Now I know that I'm a kid and don't have to worry about age yet, but I know that my childish mindset probably won't change much.

It broke again as soon as I posted that comment 😣

@leelee101 @leelee101 Haha not so much 'mothers apron strings' as 'fathers chains' 😜
