Sweet longing for better days
remembering the now ancient ways
Where did time has gone
definitely moved swiftly on

Mindful of laid-back time
not a care if the clock’s music chime
Playing ceaselessly under the sun
letting imagination run

Innocent days lost
in the wind, foolishness tossed
From slow dwindling of time passing
the imagination of a child’s mind slowly coarsening

Children’s laughter nearby
made me pause and sigh
As long as I’ll never forget I was once a youngster
recalling will rouse in me the carefree laughter
