"DANCING WITH YESTERDAY"
by Joanne Boyle
Dancing with laughter,
to the music of fun.
Playing tag with friends
the chase and run.
Two balls on the wall
as they bounced to a tune.
Keeping with the rhythm
and not a beat too soon.
Our jazz band sticks
all covered with tape.
A tennis ball on the end,
with some tassels to drape.
A game of chequers,
marbles and cats eyes.
An old skipping rope
with so many tries.
A Mother shouting
when it's time to go in.
A sibling hiding
behind the old dustbin.
A bath on a Sunday
before school began.
Deciding who went in first
before it was ran.
Winceyette sheets
under a cotton throw.
A bedside lamp
with a cosy glow.
Caring about everything
yet nothing at all.
Dancing with yesterday
when I was small.
