Let’s run down to the water’s edge,
Our faces graced with smiles,
We can act like children the entire way,
With our laughter ringing out for miles.
Together we can skip and jump,
Over broken twigs and fallen leaves,
Tumbling through the underbrush;
Swinging from the rugged limbs of trees.
Our faces will hurt from toothy grins,
As we dart in and out of sight,
Perhaps we’ll play a game or two,
Or dance with fireflies under pale moonlight.
Let us pretend that this is forever,
And our kingdom shall reign for eternity;
The kingdom we’ve built on dirt and twigs,
With our bliss innocence running wild and free.
