Boy To Manhood --- Sicilian Sonnet. Day 28
Within a childs mind full of make believe
Up in the clouds where he used to be
From there he had never wished to leave
For he was an eagle once wild and free;
Over a coloured rainbow he shall weave
Soar thro` the mist from the deep blue sea
Entranced in thoughts that he did achieve
Imaginative dreams within pure fantasy;
A child lost in the dreams he treasures
Shall grow to remember the joys of play
Of times past that brought him pleasure
But childhood within his dreams shall stay;
He never forgets butjust for good measure
A man is a boy at heart to this day.
