Look at the birds
twittering happily
and the butterflies
fluttering everywhere
the blooming flowers
and the trees swaying

The calls of the crickets
sounded through the air
tiny little fishes
swam back and forth in the pond
leaden clouds are approaching

But that was long gone
Buildings and structures are growing around me
Men are too busy
Chasing for a stash of cash
Now I'm standing here
Reminiscing about the past
This was the dream I never dared to live
and the life I never dared to dream
