Open your eyes

Lay down, close your eyes—
remember the last time
you;
frolicked through long grass
ate ice-cream straight from the container
danced the Macarena
or Hoki Poki
or did the twist,
rode a bike with no hands
ran naked through a sprinkler
did a bomb off a diving board
screamed at the top of your lungs
sang along to your favourite Abba song
or stayed up all night
then get up,
open your eyes
and
