Dare I myself dream?
Have I forgotten?
Am I allowing that toddler-like admiration and wonderment fade?
This life is all a playground
It is meant to be observed, experienced, and played with
So I challenge myself
To challenge my life to a game of kickball
Though I am anxious to kick
I take in the thrill
Though I run hard and sometimes lose my breath to get on base
I celebrate each small accomplishment
And though I struggle to score in this life
I smile all the while
Reminding my self it is not the inning to focus on
But the game in its entirety
