Ephemeral worries

POETICbug_Ephemeral worries

Adding and subtracting numbers,
Searching rivers and mountains on a paper,
Trying to understand - plants do breathe,
And memorizing those kings and queens,
When homework was the only difficulty in life,
The ephemeral worries of childhood

    1. Hi Donna,
      Yes, the simplicity of childhood when we thought "homework" was that only difficult thing in life lest we had known it was such a short-lived worry. :)

  3. Loved it again! A mixture of simplicity, profound, and the natural rhythm I must say! Keep Writing!
