Poem wrote by artist on the back side of paititng. 

“That time when flowers were toys and mountains were lava castles. Oh, may I never loose the wonder!
That time when streams of water were ocean monsters and trees were caves to hide under… oh my I never loose the wonder!
That time when sticks were swords and rocks where dangerous animals… oh may I never loose the wonder!
A sound in the distance was enough to awaken intrigue. A cloud in the sky was sufficient to make believe. No worries of tomorrow could steal the joy of present, and all we had was the minute we were living. We didn’t know quite well that time could make things loose their marvel. We were living in wonder!
May I sit on this rock again, and again and again. And while the years go by, may I always live and never loose the time to ponder”
