Hurrah for this novel concept of an inner child! I love the "grant me juvenile delinquency So that I can raise the roof" "mischievous face" and "Frolicking you run and hide."
The rhymes work well and the rhythm makes for fun, especially when read out loud.

The inner child still believes. The adult knows much better, but some times you have to let the inner child do their thing. It may be something a little naughty. You just have to let the child out to play once in a while. Great work. Good luck with the contest.

My inner child is playful, too. "Your mischievous face is smiling, I see you there within." May your inner child never die. Excellent tribute. Best of luck in the contest. Blessings, Linda

Innocent infant Alliteration empowers intro
Filling a void of dreams use 'a' instead of 'the'
Whisper your childhood secrets
THAT TRANSFORMS ME INTO SOMETHING NEW

Bestow your infancy upon me Great Line!
Unlock the treasures of youth
Grant me juvenile delinquency Funnny!!
Before MY adult WITHIN awakes

Your mischievous face is smiling
I see you there within
Frolicking you run and hide
For it's playtime once again Lovely conclusion

Suggestions only. No disrespect intended. A complex piece that delighted me.

Regards:

So cute. My son frolics ie runs like a mad thing or skips round the yard, with my 2 year old grandson.....so I guess his inner child is intact. :o)
I would sincerely love to be that child again....maybe in heaven.
God bless...good job
