Oh, to be a kid again

Oh, to be a kid again with no worries except when the next big wave is coming.

 

In the soft glow of twilight,

I find myself wandering back,

To the days of bare feet and endless summers,

When time was a concept foreign to me.

 

No structured routines, just endless possibilities,

In the backyard, beneath the canopy of stars,

We were explorers, adventurers,

Lost in the enchantment of our imaginations.

 

The taste of freedom on our lips,

As we raced against the setting sun

Innocence wrapped around us like a comforting blanket,

Shielding us from the harshness of reality.

 

Oh, to be a kid again

To laugh without worry, to dream without limits,

In the simplicity of childhood,

Nostalgia finds its purest form.

About the Contributor
Kinley Waltman
Kinley Waltman, Editor-in-Chief
Heyo! My name is Kinley, and I am a junior this year. This is my third year in journalism. I am excited to say I am the Editor and Chief of journalism this year. I enjoy skateboarding and most likely outside of school I am playing with my cat, Kristof. He is such a cuddle bug. I also enjoy watching shows/movies with my mom; our favorite genre would have to be horror or mystery. My goal for this year is to become an advanced writer. I’m very excited for the Lit Mag this school year! Have a bad day.
