James Foulk Poet Rhyme

Childhood Faded Away

Childhood faded away,
to a far away land,
simple, so simple were we,
       days of play,
       going our way,
having fun, no care
for another day.
Time for us stood still,
playing king of the hill.

Childhood faded away
thinking of another day,
summer time was fine,
when friends were kind,
swiming holes were filled,
our hearts were thrilled.

Childhood faded away,
to a time that makes me sway,
many years have passed away,
since childhood faded to another day.

Childhood faded to placed,
    unknown to us,
floating somewhere in time.
