'I could be a kid again' - Sienna Willliamson (Year 11)



I could be a kid again;

take me back to when

all that mattered was the ice cream sandwich

dripping down my chin.

I could be a kid again;

take me back to when

wrong and right was measured in

the cookie jar tin.

I could be a kid again;

take me back to when

every hurt was fixed

with bandaids as the only medicine.

Random laughing fits.

Garden fairy trips.

Bedtime arguments.

Oblivious.

I could be a kid again.

Whatever happened to then?
