Children Playing In The Park

By Liam Hughes

Children playing in the park
Praying that it never gets dark
So they can continue to laugh and lark
Hunting freedom just like a shark

From their mother’s arms they leap
Knowing not inside they weep
But love inside their hearts they keep
As they run down the hill so steep

Loss is not inside their mind
They know their mothers love is blind
They wish their thoughts would be aligned
Regret not the failures on which they’ve dined
