How tantalizing they can be


when they think they go unnoticed.


Flitting around as if they own the place;


never giving thought to rhyme or reason…


just like children at play!


How I envy their freedom, their flightiness, their lithe abilities.


Shall I attempt to mimic their antics?


Ahhh! To be a child again and frolic as I may;


to become unleashed in natures wonderful habitat


and enjoy all the natural beauty of childhood and the Impish Ones.


Alas! I have limitations in my “maturity”…but not in my mind!


So I will cavort with the Impish Ones once more…


The Ghosts of Childhood.

To be young at heart and never really quite grown up is a blessing to one. Enjoy yours!

I have been accused time and again of never having "grown up" so I can relate to this very well. Thank you, Micke. Love and peace to you,
