children playing tag ball 
‘now you’re it!’
you can’t see me playing
at their heals a bit
memories’ ghost child
behind the tree
child playing tag counting
doesn’t notice me
she floats along gray shadows
today’s yesteryear
bare feet and laughter
mimic in their ears
they hose each other down
a hot summer’s day
while she plays alongside
age has no sway
after they’ve gone inside
she plays on
forever free of life’s cares
a ghost child’s song

While visiting in CA and listening to the children outside it brought back memories of playing on the same street so many years ago it seemed like yesterday. Thank You!

I sometimes would like to think there could be a dimension we are unaware of where the spirits of loved ones are. Gives one comfort I think.
