I went for an adventurous walk through a wooded lot next to our house this afternoon.
It's Spring break and the neighborhood kids bursting with jubilant energy, boisterous laughter and inate curiosity showed me a path through the densely knitted patch of forest. Their bright little elfin faces, venturesome spirits made me feel like a child again, only taller, lol.
They wanted show me the fort they had built further into the thicket, but good sense reigned when I observed the thorny winding branches, briar and looping vines,
I graciously declined.
I thought to myself, "Oh what a wonderful spot to sit and write poetry... and meditate...
when the kids were back in school, lol.
Yes, it does make you wonder. There's a large tribe of kids on our block, they are such joy to be around. I love them all.
Blessings

Makes one think about what it's like to be a child these days.
