Peanut-Butter&Jelly With Crusts Cut Off

life is great when you are five

         Cardboard boxes become pirate ships and secret hide-outs, when you are five
         Everybody is your friend, except boys, they have cooties.
         Tea parties are an everyday occurrence, baby dolls and stuff animals your guests.
         Barbie lives in a mansion, has three cars, and can be anything she wants.
         Green Army Men protect Lincoln Log bases.
         Chairs with blankets over them become forts, no girls allowed.
         Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy are gods.
         Mommy kisses boo-boos when you fall and tucks in at night
         Daddy scares away monsters under you bed, when you are five.
