Simpler Times
Remembering times that were simpler,
 easier to comprehend.
 No responsiblities to weigh me down like
 the world on Alexander’s shoulders. 
 
 The elementary era, which makes 
 the years seem like days.
 The days flew by like a whirlwind 
 of tornadoes in Kansas.
 
 Those times were so manageable,
 they never got out of hand.
 Stress hadn’t set in,
 not yet had it bothered me.
 
 I’ve always liked school 
 especially the early times.
 Life was so fraughtless, 
 nothing could bring me down.
 
 The simpler times at Pathways had taught me a lot,
 Enjoy the easiness while can it will not be there for long.
 Not only was the school’s purpose very simple, but
 it will always have space in my heart that is not very little.
