No Turning Back the Clock

Sometimes, I think of yesterday,
   those young days so wild and carefree;
      of fun and play.
When I could go astray,
          and I knew nothing of scary;
            and I had met love-  my prince charming.

Oh, George was a real bad boy,
   and this girl knew nothing of worry;
      each day was joy.
George was no choirboy,
          my time with him a journey;
            oh, I was full of love and deep yearning.

I was so ready to follow him,
   but, my parents said, NO, firmly!
      Oh, loved his grin . . .
Those days, I now keep within,
          my love feelings I had to bury;
             but these are the days that keep swirling.
