  6. Your new background rocks, GS!
    Pics in black and white, yes, but I think our lives were more colorful than those of many children nowadays and our innocence lasted longer.
    There is always that little child inside us...

  7. Indeed how simple life seemed back then, and how little we knew of what we would confront as we grew up, thankfully or we should have been to frightened to proceed! I love this piece!

  8. Sometimes when I see that lost smile I am sad, sometimes I enjoy her joy. A fine and wistful poem. Thank you for visiting my villanelle.
