Childhood Dreams

The world is a place of happy things
Things that you are for the first time
Starting to know and experience
In your childhood, you cherish

Everything you see, you wanted to be
Until you grew up
Enough to know what you want
...You go back to time and reminisce

In our childhood we built
Dreams that will shape our future
Some came true, others just past us by
Yet some are waiting for us to conquer

In the dawn of our life
We sat down and reflect
A smile in our face will surely appear
Of dreams we have claimed and enjoyed

Yet there will be times at dawn
When we cried and feel sorry
For things that comes our way
We never grab and take

Sometimes we regret 
That some of our dreams never came
Yet we should know our childhood dreams
Helped us reach where we are now
