Rolling down the hill laughing, tumbling not caring; free as I get coated in grass stains and mud Careful not to smudge the mascara, applying eye liner and sigh in relief to have not  sullied my face saving embarrassment Giddy selecting sweets from the colourful array to buy with MY money; as much as I can! Glancing at my seemingly large stomach in this dress I opt for a salad; as always (bland) but at least  I'll be slimmer Card trades, the politics of the playground, using trickery and bribery to get the best, feeling like a boss Eyeing him with a secure hand in his, falling hard, to notice her gaze at him and subtly securing dominance of his heart. The door bell rings and there stands the gang ready with bikes and water guns to surrender ourselves to the sunny day The Suns out and the lighting is absolutely perfect for a selfie so with a stretched grin I snap, Photoshop and Instagram Toys R Us our haven and envious glances at those who could afford the best and most exquisite Bratz sets or card sets The rare visits to the Apple Store are exciting even to just gaze at the new iPhone 5 and hold it awhile.... The joy oh the joy of reading time, together we sat and took turns, enjoying the sharing of a tale With my phone in hand not a minute goes by that I don't check my Facebook page for notifications

Childhood fancies
Rolling down the hill laughing, tumbling not caring; free as I get coated in grass stains and mud Careful not to smudge the mascara, applying eye liner and sigh in relief to have not  sullied my face saving embarrassment Giddy selecting sweets from the colourful array to buy with MY money; as much as I can! Glancing at my seemingly large stomach in this dress I opt for a salad; as always (bland) but at least  I'll be slimmer Card trades, the politics of the playground, using trickery and bribery to get the best, feeling like a boss Eyeing him with a secure hand in his, falling hard, to notice her gaze at him and subtly securing dominance of his heart. The door bell rings and there stands the gang ready with bikes and water guns to surrender ourselves to the sunny day The Suns out and the lighting is absolutely perfect for a selfie so with a stretched grin I snap, Photoshop and Instagram Toys R Us our haven and envious glances at those who could afford the best and most exquisite Bratz sets or card sets The rare visits to the Apple Store are exciting even to just gaze at the new iPhone 5 and hold it awhile.... The joy oh the joy of reading time, together we sat and took turns, enjoying the sharing of a tale With my phone in hand not a minute goes by that I don't check my Facebook page for notifications
