Toys of Yesterday
Stained with little fingerprints,
echoed laughter of children's past.
Toys that were once longed for...
outgrown, forgotten, outcast.
Swing that once swayed piggy tails,
untamed leafage it only sways.
A trustee superhero...
the day, no longer, he saves.
In children that once loved you,
a more creative mind you bloomed.
Imagination needed...
these children, so well, you groomed.
Precious toys of yesterday,
by little hands no longer touched.
Precious toys of yesterday,
through you, they learned, so much.
