Innocence and curiosity like the early birds of spring Flowers not yet blossomed yet sprouting into bloom Our goals and aspirations duly fulfilled or fallen by the next season of our lives
We were children yesterday seeking adventure two blocks from home safe in the knowledge there was a home
Good and evil were black and white long before the shades of gray crept into our maturity We were children yesterday raw with emotion and breathing la joie de vie
