Sunset

there once was a boy

good-hearted and innocent

 

worried not about the 

flecks of mud

clinging to his toes

 

thinking not of the

stinging scrapes

kissing his knees

 

worried not

save for the dwindling daylight

bringing end

if only temporary

to his fun

 

there was once a man

chased by the sun
