Childhood Is Calling

Childhood Is Calling

Childhood is calling and summer is here
School let out this week; it’s the end of the year

To walk in the mountains and down in the valleys
Stay up late and sleep in and take time to dally
Beside every flower, and stream, and sunset
And know all the best things have not happened yet!

Of twilight's changing dusks to dawns
Walking on cracks between, hearing, and seeing,
