Playing Outside
The kids play outside
Yelling and laughing
The mother calls out, “Junior!”
But they keep playing
One boy chases another boy
A girl runs towards them
“Junior! Martha! Anthony!”
“We’re just playing!” One of them screams
As the birds sing
And the trees sway
And the sun sets
On a day
They’ll one day wish
They could return to
