The paths that once my feet
As a child upon did trod
Are covered now by time
And natures earthen sod

No more do they lead
To that place of many dreams
No more grand adventures
Now only grown up things

It seems not that long ago
That I walked on childhoods trail
But the days have quickly passed
And now I am old and frail

I hold my memories dear
Though I can never go back
To the days when I was young
And walked a childhoods path
