When I Was Seven Poem by Jayne Louise Davies

When I Was Seven

Rating: 5.0


Oh to be seven again!
To run down the hill,
As school ends for the day,
To play in the park,
So happy and gay,
To pick flowers for Mum,
From the lovely woodland,
To see her smile,
As she holds out her hand,
To wake up each morning,
Without a care,
To know that my loved ones,
Are waiting there,
Good morning they'd say,
As I walked down the stairs,
Oh to be seven again.
To go out on day trips,
Down to the beach,
To play in the sand,
Great memories to keep,
To feel the sun,
Shine down on my face,
Oh to be seven again.

Hi Jayne, your lovely poem ushered in a lot of nostalgic memories. The good old days when everyone loved us: the teachers in the school, parents and siblings at home, with lots of friends, days of all play and no work..
