I look over my shoulder and what do I see... laughing friends a blue drop handlebar bike a rope swing over the river wet socks slapping against a rock wood pigeons cooing fear long summer evenings with the smell of new mown hay green-kneed jeans and a sweat bound brow ginger bread a runny nose, runny eyes and clouds of pollen dust a bril-creamed quiff bigboy bullies and salty tears chalk scraping the blackboard clattering drop-lid desks and ink blots heeling marble holes in new tar macadam axes, bowie knives, catapults and bows and arrows games of chicken and blaring horns treetop views me spread-eagled on a dung heap and dusk-time calls to home... 2012 |

This is very good...it really made me remember my youth...minus the dung heap bit. I wonder what poems the kids of today will be writing about their childhood years from now...and will they be written in text speak? |
