Golden sweet cookies
And soft white bread
We smiled and skipped when the sun came
Drenched ourselves laughing in the rain
With rainboots as our small rubber boats
Tromping through pools and mysterious moats
Ladybugs worms and butterflies
We were all the same, you and I
Wasn't this what life was supposed to be?
Mommy had told me that I could stay me
So why does the rain mean sneakers and coats?
My feet are sinking, no longer afloat
My memory fades in the stress of today
A worm in the sun, butterfly in the rain
The world is sharpened with age
But I turn to stay absorbently unphased
Gravity can't take my mind, which grows forever through clouds
Knowledge grants me wings to navigate the crowds
My smile is sun, my tears are rain
I see that we are all, still really the same.
