My Boyhood Dream

CONE are the days when as a boy
" had my way.
Walking by the streams and
dreaming all the day
Dreaming OF my future life and
maybe OF a little wife.
One who would in time OF strife
make for me a happy life.
Dreaming among the trees, flowers,
the birds and bees.
With a story book resting on my
knees.
Now as I reminisce with a longful
heart.
I'm sad that from boyhood did
part.
And as I face my manhood prime.
I dream OF boyhood all the time.
And men from boyhood have TO
grow.
For boys in a mans world progress
slow.
And now as end my dream to
day.
There is something I'd like TO say.
Boyhood is dear to everyone.
Not to be traded for gold by tons.
