The Wind speaks loudly
The leaves swim about in the air-
Each telling its own Story
The Sun shines-
The ground soaks it up
into every crevice-
A child’s bare feet pitter patter
Across the warm grass
The Wind speaks to him-
He listens carefully
The leaves tells its own story to him-
He watches intently
A Child’s mind and eyes plays at its own imagination

The though of still being a child, and seeing the world in a different aspect intrigues me. I miss the times where a tree could have been the most amazing object as it turned into a vast castle in a tree before my eyes.
