SANBOX DREAMS

Sometimes I wish

I could desert all my problems

Worries fade away

Burden's weight lifted

Responsibilities removed.

And I am a child

A carefree little girl

Playing in the sandbox

Conflict resolved

Prejudice nonexistent,

No doubts

No fears.

My only decision

is what I shall build

With my sandcastle completed

I am content

innocence-my world,

Love-my expression

And laughter, my favorite friend.

Soon

The castle crumbles

sand escapes

Carried away by the breeze

and with it

My childhood

Let me come back

To the secure boundaries

of my sandbox

Again....Sometime
