A Child Again

Looking forward to the day
When work is done and I can run
And simply flitter time away
Telling tales, having fun.
Chasing fireflies at sunset,
Glowing bright against my skin.
Quick release, catch again,
Never ending, just begun
To see the wonder of it all. 
Quick to fall, but pick it up,
Begin again to fill the cup,
Playing hard til final call.
Games aplenty we can choose.
Make the rules up at the end
To assure we never lose.
Oh, to be a child again.
