Haiku Challenge #1 / Childhood

[Blue Satin Sashes]

Write a haiku (or series of haikus, if you'd rather) about a childhood memory. It can be about your childhood, the childhood of one of your characters, or even just childhood in general.

A Haiku, in case you need a refresher, looks like this:
Line with 5 syllables
Line with 7 syllables
Line with 5 syllables

Here's mine, for an example:

-------------------------------------

Toys litter the floor
"Clean your room", Mother commands
How about never​

 

[Arcadia]

Childhood memories
A swingset lies rusted now
Never to be used

 

[heliacalRebirth]

A drop of honey
will taste sweet to the children
But not for adults

 

[Arcadia]

comfortable heat
the fireplace where stories are told
sleep to me comes easy now

 

[TheBingster]

A forgotten past
Buried beneath my worries
I want to go back

 

[Capt. Blu]

Books scattered around
In want to learn everything
Never time to sleep

 

[Mysfortuna]

Merry days approach
But forever sorrowful
The loss of a friend

Fluffy and loving
Compassionate and caring
Forever silent

The gentle and loving
Gazes of chocolate eyes
eternally missed
