~*` When I Was Just A Little Lad `*~

Thad Wilk

So many years have come and gone.

Fond mem'ries often cross my mind.

To my childhood days I am drawn,

to the innocence I left behind.

*`*

Those August days I still recall,

that time of year I so loved best.

As a kid those times did enthrall.

Those games of 'pretend' I'd address.

*`*

Was nothing I could not achieve.

Oh so much joy that time did bring

For in my world of make believe,

there I could be most anything.

*`*

I wish could go back to then.

Relive those good times that I had.

To those August days once again.

When I was just a little lad~

    Nice work, Thad. I often recall childhood memories too.
    What if 'make believe" has more power than we realize? Just sayin!
