Reminiscence of Childhood Friends and Playtime in Africa

Memories rose like tendrils of smoke
Wisps of breath fluttered in my soul
Stirring in my mind’s eye
The vibrancy of yesteryears
The aura of innocence
A healthy bloom on rosy cheeks
Benign laced smiling mouths and friendly scuffles
Peals of laughter grappled with
Carefree days, responsibility miles away
Playfulness the order of the day
From dawn till dusk, tender hearts spun mischief
Ever mindful of whip’s lash
A day stamped on my inner walls
A celebration of birth, unveiling of new life
Hopeful little hearts squabbling about day’s event
New mama had returned, healthy, strong
To sighs of gratitude
Then pitched in sticky fingers, more like impeding
Ah! Nostalgia wraps my heart in sheath of fluff
As I was carried on memory’s happy arms, down flashback's lane.
