What happen to the dayz
What happen to the dayz
Mothers with children
took visits to the park
Mothers chatting with each other
hooping on the court
dominos slammin,cards being tossed
boyz diving in the pool
when girls skirts flew up
they were wearing shorts
What happen to the dayz
long walks to school
stop to pick up a friend
you would'nt dare be late
chastising from the neighbors
was the golden rule
What happen to the dayz
when children loved the outdoors
parents would visit each other
while sitting on the porch
children running,laughing,playing was the scene
you see the ice cream truck coming
you start running behind its scream
What happen to the dayz
men had such great respect
by nodding their heads,removing
their hats ,hiding their bottles
in brown paper sacks
What happen to the dayz
children ran a race against the night
you would enter the door
laughing inside, because you beat the street lights
What happen to the dayz
did it just disappear into thin air
should we try find it again
or ignore it, as if we don't care.
