Chosen Word: Halcyon. Written for the contest sponsored by Constance La France. 04/10/2023
Oh! to be youthful and full of zest
Those halcyon memories arise
When frivolous day needed no rest
And mothers did firmly chastise.
Boundaries pushed, fun prevailed
When days were lived in the sun
No thought of tomorrow ever assailed
Golden halcyon days were spun.
Decades have fled and youth matured
Wisdom replaced bygone antics
Wheel of life turns generation assured
Is life just game of semantics?
