A Childhood Memory

A CHILDHOOD MEMORY I recall how in my younger days I created things to entertain myself I had some very memorable ways Let me not forget my youth The things I made could not be bought Made from stuff that had been thrown away I turned them into toys never before wrought Let me not forget my youth When I grew up and moved from home All my toys remained behind But now I'm back nevermore to roam And I have not forgotten my youth 22 February 2019 For the contest, Writing Challenge, Feb 2019, Roundel Form - Poetry contest sponsored by Dear Heart

They were certainly the best times, who didn't go into space and be the hero in battles, and who pulled the sword out of the stone, well maybe the girls lol. Tom.

Yes, Tom, those were wonderful days and ingrained wonderful memories. Now, in my "Golden Years", I can reminisce regarding those younger years. Thanks for stopping by!
