Paper Boats

Days of My Childhood
Just love making Paper Boats
Putting in the Stream
As it goes along
Sailing with flow of current
With Pleasure and Joy
Having Simple things
The Innocence of the past
Bygone were the Days
In response to September Heights-Day 26, P#185, "Paper Boats"
Nowadays children are more into gadgets and computerised games unlike our generation when the games we played were made from papers , wood or cans. But it brought immense pleasure nevertheless.

Indeed it does. Somehow September Heights do provide opportunities for recalling the happy memories I ethched into my mind.
