Congratulations, dear Amanda...HAdn't it been for the fact that I am as tired as I am (it's 09.31am, and I have yet to sleep this night), I would have given a more thorough comment...

Well-done Amanda! I remember those days too. I still have a lot of kid in me, when I do go to the park I still have to swing. Very peaceful and full of fond memories for so many, I am sure. Take Care! Brooke~

Awsome poem!!very well done! 5/5!!

Wow that was really good. "Intoxicated by the swirls" is an awesome line. You're very talented, if you aren't already, you should start submitting it to some of those magazines like Potluck or Teen Ink or whatever.

We’ll step barefoot in the sand
And feel the wonder all around
Together we’ll proceed, hand in hand
Let’s go back to our playground

I remeber how aweosme being a kid was. fab poem. xx

That was really sweet! reminds me of my own childhood playground...so many good memories...
