My Gran's Place

It isn't where the
Sunshine hides, no
-That just reflects off the waves
Across the Bosphorus shores'
Nor is it where I roam;
But it is where I call home
-Unsurprisingly where my gran
Lovingly looked after me.

-it's a city I lived in my childhood, I hope it still counts, if not, no worries it was lovely to think of my gran again with warm happy thoughts. Thank you Lee. :)

Go Back

Oh what I'd give to go back to the days of being a kid When the worst things that came were bad dreams and skinned knees. To go back to the days of being care free.

Youth And Manhood

I miss my youth, everyday I could go out to the playground and play sand. I don't have to worry about cleanness or bacteria, I just simply play along until I am fulfilled.
