Childhood Reveries

In fields of gold beneath the summer sun, Where laughter danced and time was never done, We chased the butterflies in endless flight, And dreams took wing on fleeting rays of light. Through woods alive with whispers soft and kind, Where secrets bloomed like flowers in the mind, We built our castles in the morning dew, And every wish we had, we found was true. Beneath the stars that sang of distant lands, We made our plans with tiny, hopeful hands, To conquer worlds that lay beyond our sight, And hold the fleeting moments, pure and bright. Oh, childhood days, too swiftly they did flee, Like waves that vanish in the restless sea, Yet in my heart your echoes still remain, A cherished song, untouched by time's refrain.
