Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!


Magpie #44

"Childhood is the most beautiful of all life's seasons."  ~Author Unknown




Somewhere between carelessly sliding down Maynord's hill,
and carefully climbing up the ladder of success,
I forgot how to simply say:
weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

    I think we adults should begin each day with a loud "Weeeeee!" It's so easy to forget to just be happy and live in the moment while we are stressing over life's sometimes silly little problems.

    So simple and direct, this poem goes straight to the heart of the matter. I really like it.
    (Ps. Maynord's hill is the detail that makes it.)
