Back to the days of yore
Back to the times when I lived more
When flowers bloomed in spring
And summer vacations were filled with carefree joy
There were little worries and little fear
Of the big, bad monsters of the dark
Or the drudgery of having to wake up
Or as early as a lark
I could endlessly dream about my future
That would seem to be filled with promise and joy
With me, no one could treat me like a toy
Because of my strong willed nature
Loneliness and rejection were not among my fears
Thus I shed few real tears
School was easy, work was play
Life was bright as a sunny day
Oh, that I could relive the days of yore!
The times when I lived more
when the future I did not dread
When the good days would not end
I so loved this piece... Like you, this poem took me back to younger days when care free was the way and life was full of wonderment. I'm glad I read this now however, I just returned from the las vegas renfair and I was part of the event... IT was amazing! this piece could be a reminder of those days gone by. Well done dear poet!!!
