Back To My Youth Sonnet.

In my older years I start to look back

To the wonder times of my younger years,

Those times that are now written on the plaque,

The plaque set my mind showing no fears.

 

Those wonderful times of playing with friends,

Chasing over the fields and climbing trees,

Where our life was full of great dividends,

And dirt and scabs were always on our knees.

 

Such a wonderful time being so young,

Young and so very fearless in our lives,

The place from where our lives of wisdom sprung

And into the future life where it strives,

 

Those younger days took me into the place

From where I reached my wonderful old age.
