Meccano Set Poems

My Favourite Time As a Child

When I look back on my childhood
the pre-school days were the best
living as an only child in the country
although adopted was treated as a guest

In my bedroom, I played with my toys
lots of farm figures were such fun
felt like I had my very own farm
took a break when I went out to run

One of my favourites is Betta Build
to build little houses just like new
also loved my Meccano set
spent endless hours doing all I knew

AS a loner I loved my own company
spending quality time with just me
such sweet contentment to enjoy
gives you a feeling of being free

Having a stammer caused to be alone
but don't regret it, no not at all
for learned such a lot about myself
years later, able to ride over many a fall

(This is about autobiographical account of my childhood. The life I remember from my pre-school memories which were my favourite years.)
