Remember When?
R. Dafremen

Stop, come play with me awhile
And laugh again with a child's smile
For a little while, with your child smile

Remember when, remember then?
We swung our legs so blissful, now
Just wistful now, just wistful now

Mature, you sternly reprimand
So tall you are, all grown and proud
So serious I laugh out loud, with a child's smile
Laugh out loud with my child smile

I laugh for you, smile for you
I cried for you, what died in you?
I cry and smile with a child's smile
Weep and wait for you awhile
With your child smile, your child smile
I weep and wait for your child smile.

That's really pretty

it's the start of the season ..the dawning is near ..the age of fish comes announcing the news of the year ..there's an open horizon before us ..there is a rainbow under my eyes ..we shall be one ..under the sun ..right here in the power of the light

a very likeable poem.
the nostalgic strain rings out strong and clear.

is that supposed to be "Mature,"...? or as you wrote it?

yet if tis as you wrote it, somehow.. the expression sounds stark against a background of mildness.

hope you don't mind a mind minding.

Not at all. I love what you have to say.

The poem was suppose to capture the feeling of meeting someone that had been a good friend when I was a child, many years later. It was the child in me, the child of those times and of my memories looking for the person I had once known. He wasn't there anymore, at least he didn't show his face that day.
