I Was Once A Child So Young

I was once a child so young With fantasies in my mind Like flowers from seeds do sprung Each memory left behind Like air that is busting to sky To float with a cloudy mist Or a brook in its flowing nearby That earth has wandered and kissed I look now and find memories Of so much that life has given The inside the heart only sees And you through times have liven There is so much far and wide In songs of my singing that call With moments for a while to abide Like leaves in their beautiful of fall My dreams have been pleasantry thing With so much a child can do They infinitely to me now sing And some of them I interpret to you A love song to fly in the blue And wander away in youth’s countryside To give of a young heart so true In a merry-go-round childhood’s ride
