Thoughts In Childhood
Form: Cross Sonnet 2
Those childhood toys now recalled as I write
They made me dream and listen without noise
Settling my thoughts all through the night
I drifted to sleep with those childhood toys
Those shelves of books reciting fairy tales
All ordered in line to the steel coat hooks
Adventures released my mind on full sails
Imagination in those shelves of books
So much time passed long since my days of youth
And my heart still feels that fantastic mast
Guiding fiction as it mingles with truth
It’s easy to forget so much time passed
But as the black ink remembers it all
My aging mind begins it sweet recall
