Primary School...

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Jul 30, 2017

"I'd love to be back in primary school,
just to play in the schoolyard, and again act the fool,
living my days without a care, often getting stuck up a tree
because of a dare.
Running dangerously along a back entry wall,
no it never entered my head, that I might trip up, and fall,
always playing out in the rain, getting wetter, and wetter, and if 
I bumped my little head, mum would just kiss it better.
The sheer joy of living! with so much playing to be done,
worries were for the grown ups, my life was just pure fun.
Oh, to rewind the years, wouldn't that really be cool,
honest, I'd love to be back in my old primary school."
