It Was Such A Long Time Ago Poem by Peter S. Quinn

It was such a long time ago
When the sky was still in its blue
And gold threads in clouds did glow
When sunup was young and new
Hours where carrying dreams on
Filling the moments with beauty
When nothing in romance was gone
And every wish was still within me

It was such a long time ago
When we were as fresh as the snow
It was such a long time ago
When there were no moods to and fro
And morrows brought us half away
Into the long long of our journey
When new dawn awakened the day
And made us just listen and see

It was such a long time ago
When my heart was in its young beat
And everybody wanted to know
What was to become in each new meet
When longings were still to be known
Reached with its goals and dreams
And into earth fresh richness grown
Like a river that through valley streams

It was such a long time ago
When we were as fresh as the snow
It was such a long time ago
When there were no moods to and fro

It was such a long time ago
