How Good Was Youth! Poem by Naseer Ahmed Nasir

How Good Was Youth!

Rating: 5.0


Thru the jungle of your sleep
I had a passage of my dreams
You had a bookish face
I had a school bag in my hand.

Youth an exciting time, no time to pause. Today my school bag is still full, but I study at a more leisurely pace, yet life is good, I'm happy. Bob
