Take me back
To mud pies, popsicles, and walking barefoot.
To catching tadpoles
And tasting honey suckles.
Take me back
To a drama-free life
Of youth and innocence
Where my only trouble
Was losing my favorite dolly.
Take me back
To cute little crushes
And high-pitched giggles
And never knowing
How hard it would be when you grew up.
