-Memory poem-
Okay, this is another poem for school. 20 lines minimun, has to have repitition. Has to be about a childhood memory....tell me what you think



The Park

A blurr of green
itchy on my skin
laughter echoes inside my head
the world spinning around and around
colors blurring together

when I was little
the park was my favorite place
the clink of metal links swinging
air rushing through your hair
you could swear you were flying
but gravity always pulls you back
like a curse entrapping you in a cage

when I was little
you could always find me there
the big dome structure
seemed to be bigger than an elephant
eager to climb it
how silly it was when my mother had to come get me down

When I was little
I would feel so free
barefoot in the sand
or running through the grass
slapping stings of the cement
would itch at my feet
while I ran to get some water
or go to the bathroom

When I was little
the park was my favorite place
but now while im older
the park is still favored over many
as I step onto the sand
I am flooded and washed away by an outburst of memories
images flash through my mind
all good and bad
and all of the park
with me being little and enjoying it all

As you can probably see, I'm not too creative with my titles >.< hehe...

	When I was little,the swings were and still are my faves.It feels like your flying if you shut your eyes,something I've always wanted to do.Oh,inspiration for a poem gotta go!! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks!! Flying is so much fun,but I won't get on an airplane,9/11 kinda made me paranoid.Besides,its not as fun when you don't have wings. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yea..9/11 didnt scare me that much but I agree that flying with wings would be so much better. To feel the air rushing between your feathers and *sigh* I wish I had wings (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
