Alright. For anyone who has read this short story, I just did, It's what I plan to do next in my next lucid dream. I want to see things the way the kids did. If only temporaraly. If you haven't read it, you can look and find it online for free fairly easily. I hope I don't go insane. :|

Thats funny... Im at my sisters house and I've been watching my 5 and 3 year old nieces play thinking about how wonderful it was to be a kid- they are jumping and running through the house, half naked, screaming and laughing. Free little spirits. The Hawaiians called this "little kid time," and regard it as a magical time.

I'll have to check out the story.

The story is named after a line from that poem yeah. And I guess it does have some significance in the story too.

It was magical...it's hard to remember tho. Probably never feel that energy again. Except in a lucid dream?
