Where is it? Where did it go? You know - the laughter, the fun, The excitement and wonder Dancing on a spree and singing off key Smiling, crying and finding a way Being amazed and feeling good Dreaming, imagining, coloring Coloring outside the lines Hanging out and hanging up Going on adventures both near and far Feeling okay and feeling good enough No worries, no fears None that mattered anyway What happened? To jumping in puddles Catching bats and butterflies And becoming best friends With someone you just met Being superheroes and daredevils Of seeing things and seeing more Standing in awe Why did it all go away? So far, far away Did it have to go? Because letting go seems so wrong Hey, do you wanna play? © 2020 Loly Rinn Photo by Jed Villejo on Unsplash

A amazing poet. Read her work and enjoy.
If we forget how to play, know laughter and have some fun. Would be a boring life. I try to do something fun daily. Thank you Loly for sharing your amazing work.
Fun is truly missing in our world. Thank you for sharing your heart.
I agree dear Loly. Wasn’t a bad Summer for me and my grandchildren. Lake St. Clair is near. The water was clean. the factories closed down and the we spend many days at the lake. We must create new things to do. You are welcome.
