Childhood Past

Watching out the window pane

Hear those sounds once again

Memories come flooding in

Of childhood games set to begin

 

Children playing on the swings

Laughter like a clear bell rings

Spinning on the round-about

Always gives a playful shout

 

Riding up and down the street

Never worried who you'd meet

Out at dawn, back at dark

Each little thing was such a lark

 

Hopscotch in the old school yard

Life like this was never hard

Songs and chants to pass the day

Thinking, forever it'd be this way

 

Always playing hide and seek

Or running down beside the creek

Football on the village green

Champions were always seen

 

Now it's gone, life moves so fast

Just memories of childhood past

Time has come now to remain

Watching out the window pane.
