Carefree

Carefree

as we age we become

more

hardened

certainly

more serious

wouldn't it be better

to think carefree

become more playful

act like a child

from time to time

life beats us down

and weighs on us

we are always so serious

we need to be more

carefree

playing with paints

getting our hands dirty
skipping outside

being whimsical

if only

for a moment

the next time you pass

a swing set in the park

try sitting on a swing

letting go

being playful
remember how it used to be

acting childlike


carefree is good
for the spirit
it is food for the soul
if only for 
a moment
