Norman Rockwell eat your heart out

[plural]

glancing out my window
I see
a group of children
playing stickball
in the cul de sac

I think often
we forget
what it was like
to be a child

and our lives
are poorer for it

i dont think all of us forget...just that some of us want to.

sometimes I think maybe
those that were children
grew up to be what they
were when they grew up
(I do not feel comfortable
with the word adult?)
and those that were not
even children still
are not something that..is.
hmm. you know what I mean! (oy. do you?)
