To be a child again…
What would it be like?
Would I play with Barbie and Ken
Or go to town center by bike?
Would I build a castle out of sand
Or beg my mom to bake me a treat?
Would I run my own lemonade stand
Or run up and down the street?
Or would I be different than I used to be?
Would I go back to fix some mistake
That way I could surely guarantee
That tonight regret won’t keep me awake…
No, I wouldn’t change one thing
I’d have fun and act so carefree
Because what did mistake bring?
It shaped who I am; it made today’s me.

It was great!
You have done an awesome job on this poem. I love the subject and the word flow! You wrote it perfectly! And by the way, I am a child, and I have fun all the time too! lol

I agree I would not change anything either, it is thought provoking as I have had these thoughts myself. Well thoughtout with lovely wording. The only thing I would have done different is that I would have split the first verse into two.

wonderful! :-)
I really like this poem. It hits me for sure. I sometimes wonder, as well, what it would be like to go back and be a child again. It seems as though it was so carefree... and it was. hehe but then I wonder if I would want to leave what I have today. It isn't much... but do I want to go through the tough times again to get here?

Great!
Perfect words! Clear, concise... great job! Childhood really is the best, so that's why I'm holding onto it so much. Like the old saying, "Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional." Anyways, lovely poem!
