All are excellent! I can relate to each one and paused as I read each to view the picture you created and the memories of myself in these situations. Thanks for sharing these delightful thoughts.

I like them all, especially the last one. The one I've quote here sparked a memory of Waynesboro, GA, :-)

The image created in the first one is clasic. The funny looks between the children and the gibbons is described perfectly. Each trying to make heads or tails of the other...

Great sense of balance and metre. Thanks for sharing these gems...

The second reminds me of when I were a kid, day dreaming, looking out class window at cloud formations, doing just that. Or castles with raging battles, till chalk duster went whizing past my head. "TURNER YOU DAY DREAMING AGAIN; BOY" Oh the joy of surviving catholic schooling.

Albeit, each and every one, paints a great mind picture.

Well done B. O. T DEN
