Today Bri Misses Mommy!….[ Missing Other People And Other Things; Short; "Growing Up" ]



"I miss Mommy! ! " Bri cried out today.
"I miss the neighbor girl with whom I did play! "
"I miss climbing trees up to the sky! "
"I miss finding birds' nests; do you know why? "

I miss them all.I'm tired of being so "Grown Up".
I miss them SO much, I think I'll now throw up! !
Perhaps some things are missed by you or YOU?
I miss things from childhood, at age seventy-two.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Last night i dreamed of the neighbor girl i spent many hours with, usually at her house, playing board games, cards, and badminton.

But in the dream she was 'old' like i am now,60 years after our fun times together.

Very sweet memories of childhood! A lovely poem! Whatever the age, Mommy is always missed. I think of my Mom everyday. Missing playing games with the neighbour girl....that's so nostalgic. But i agree with Kostas, please avoid climbing trees, Bri...But continue to dream! ..... :)
