Toy Library

Tucked away
From the mainstream
Of shopaholics
Such a cute little old building
Dressed in a new coat of
Paint ~
And blessed with a touch
Of purple beauty ~
A gift of nature
~
The idea seemed
A little different
To me ~
I have never known
A toy library ~
Such a lovely concept
Offering the right to play
To any child
~
And yet
I feel
A rising sense of
Discomfort
Maybe even
Anger
That in our
Progressive world
Some cannot freely access
The child within
And need
To borrow playtime ~
Keeping in mind
It must be given
Back
