A DANCE OF INNOCENCE AND ADVENTURE
By Paul Baldry
ECHOES OF CHILDHOOD
Underneath the orchard tree, echoes of playful boys,
Innocence twirls, jests soar, tease the girls they will.
Within their hearts, full of naughtiness they be,
Their giggles, their delight—then we say, they’re just boys.
Beneath the moon’s glow, whispers of adventurous boys,
In their games, pranks fly, chase the girls they will.
In their souls, love—hidden behind playfulness it be,
Their chuckles and boisterous deeds—they’re just boys.
In the park around swings, giggles of playful girls,
With laughter teasing the boys, then away they skip,
Creating a world of joyous and magical memories and
Under the warm sun, majestically they prance and dance.
Beneath the moon’s glow, whispers of adventurous girls,
In their soul, love hidden playfully—away they skip,
Creating a majestic world of dreamy imagination and
Under the moonlight, the boys and girls gracefully dance.
