There I was at school,
Playtime would come
And there we were,
Me and my pals playing,
Playing marbles around the playground,
Try to hit each other’s marbles
And winning them,
Winning them for our collection,
To make our collection bigger
And more impressive.
But time has now moved on
And in my old age
I find that on many occasions
I no longer win,
And find that I am losing them,
I seem to be losing my marbles.
