Description Take my hand and
I'll show you the ropes.

I'll be your guide
for the next decade
or two.

No need to fear
for I will always be here.

I will teach you
the ways of the world.
Then I will teach you
the right way.

Sometimes you may lose your way
and trip.
But never fear...

Fall down seven times?
Get up eight.

I'll be sure that
you never falter
and be wise.

You have a good sense for enjambment, pacing and line breaks. And the story that was the spark for writing this poem is great--I'd honestly like to see more of that spark come into this piece. Bring yourself in more, and bring the boy and his cardboard box arcade in more. These unique images will ground the work, and give the reader even more to hold on to.

You can call it that if you want. I am just artistic enough to know when something is complete or not. And I will say this isn't entirely complete. It is just something I got out as fast as I could to make sure I didn't forget about the idea and concept.

This is a decent poem, but I'm FAR more enthused by your explanation. That's a wonderful anecdote!

I can't be sure about this, but I think 'Innocence' is spelt with a C. Maybe it's a American thing?

Yeah I got it wrong.

I am starting to get randomly inspired for poems by the advice of one my readers. He said I should take a little more notice into daily situation no matter how petty they seem.
