Carefree Wonderland Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Here at a community center in Mesa with my youngest Grand-
daughter, playing and meeting up with friends, having a
great time.

Smiling, talking, laughing, everything a child of seven
should be doing, a carefree wonderland of fun and playtime,
learning also how to make friends and communicate with others.

A special game of finding where Oscar the dog is hiding, once
finding him, getting a treat; older gentlemen playing pool,
children playing games of all types.

Granddaughter having found bowling and going to town with her
friends, competing to see who gets the highest score, a wond-
erful time for both of us.

We will come again for it's good for her to get out of the
house, especially now because she broken her leg a few days
ago while on a trampoline with friends.

An older girl jumping and doing back flips, landing on her
leg, breaking it just below the knee, very painful and fright-
ening to have happened to one so young.

Loving, outgoing, always smiling, my Granddaughter is such a
positive little girl, easily making friends, being a social
butterfly.
