~ Childhood Is A Time Of Innocence ~

Childhood is a time of innocence.
It is the morning time of life when all is change and wonder.
It begins with being born and ends with growing up.
It is a small world of pennies and wishes...
of sudden friendships...
and short sorrows.
It is big stairs and small footprints.
It is joy...and laughter...and make-believe.
Childhood is a magic place of dreams...
where everything is possible
and the best is just beginning.
It is a timeless place...
where minutes are not numbered
and the hours are sweet with happiness
Childhood is for exploring...
It is for running...and reaching...
and touching...and seeing...
and tasting...and hearing...and learning...
but, mostly, it is for growing.
Childhood is when we are young.
It is the happy hour...
the passing dream...
the tender time of innocence
that is part of us forever.
