Grown

I'll be home in time for tea
On my Chopper, ride for miles
Get filthy dirty, biggest smiles
No iThis or that for pointless talking
Social networking done while walking
A few years on, it's not the same
All everybody wants is fame
Grown up too soon to bear a cross
Innocence the greatest loss

The 'R3@L' World.

Remember when we all used words. That time so long ago. When 'C U L8R' wasn't that, It was 'know' instead of 'no'. Remember when we taught to spell, And every write was art.

Halloween

Whatever happened to Halloween. The costumes and treats galore. The trick-or-treaters, ghouls and ghosts, Alas, they are no more. Is it the rain or fear and pain, That drove away those smiling faces.
