Those Halcyon Days

 

Those days of youthful vigour

that indomitable spirit

a strength inviolate

brimming with optimsim and passion

nothing to stand in one´s way

Each day a seductive adventure

limitless opportunities to seize

The sun always shone high above

life was at its summit of conquest

We flew along in utter delight

little to care for or impede

all came within our boundless stride

No thought of responsibilities

less time to reflect or ponder ahead.

The very present moment

was our utmost fill
