I'd like to be 5 years old

By Qurious

I'd like to be 5 years old right now
Worrying about the things
A 5 year old worries about
Do I have enough toys?
Is my tv show on?
Is my friend home to play with?
Will mommy read my favourite story?

I'd like to be 5 years old right now
And cuddle in mom or dad's arms
Knowing I'm safe from harm
Nothing is stronger than my daddys arms

I'd like to be 5 years old right now
Never pondering adult things
Always looking thru rose coloured glasses
And finding joy in everyday dreams

I'd like to be 5 years old right now.
RIGHT
NOW.

    =) ahaha... I entirely agree. I enjoy finding whimsical poems like this; they just don't come often enough, Not enough Silverstein fans I suppose. Well played. ~b
