Example Poem:

Finish in Glee

Rise up- find the child within

She can play without chagrin.

She has shared you long with me

Let her play with us begin.

Let my child within be free

to reflect with company,

aged but still embracing schemes.

Anxious now for what we'll see.

Serious jobs done now it seems.

Let's now play with mind's own dreams.

We can be silly now and enjoy

watching views of life's extremes.

Hidden by convention's din

shines undimmed to child within.
