Out On Your Own

By MICHAEL V., Canton, MA

   



Trying to keep up with the gang,

but failing each time,

he wanders away feeling sad.

Looking for something to do

he finds an older boy nearby,

silently listening.

They play and play

happy in each other's company

until ...

His little gang returns

and says, "Can we play, too?"

He lets them

because he knows how it feels

to be out on your own.
