Little
Joey plays so hard at being what he sees,
Imagination racing like the rhythm of a train.
Making temporary worlds inspires as it frees
His soul to grow like new mown grass after the rain.
Susie tries to catch a star and hold it as a treasure,
Growing up so quickly that she causes heads to spin.
Stepping into mother's shoes, trying hard to measure
Up to expectations of both kith and kin.
Animations learned in youth
Become a lifetime folly.
Pretending soon becomes a vivid point of reference.
The wise will quickly learn to use escape
To keep them jolly.
The unwise simply cannot see
To tell the difference.
