Click hereChildhood ends, so they say,
but as long as I can lounge
in the arms of my favorite
tree...the great big one that
was always easy to climb,
where the bark was rubbed
smooth in just the right spots...
and listen to the migrating geese
(on the move once more)
while studiously catching every drip
of Nanny's hand-cranked ice cream
in those next-best-thing-to-cardboard
cones they sold up at the market,
as long as I can do that, if nothing
else, then I can be a child forever.

vani348over 11 years agoI loved it....not everyone has childhood of dreams...but that does not stops me in peaking in yours and delighting! world is full of sorrow....but....a small window of joy is always welcome.

Desejoover 11 years agoWhile I don't yearn to return to childhood (because it would mean going through those awful teen years again) - this did make me go directly to Amazon.com in search of a hand-cranked ice cream maker. It works for me.
