When I Was Young Poem by Barbara Stahly

When I Was Young



When I was young and full of joy
the days were sunny and full of light
I sang and laughed and looked ahead
to be older and wiser and very well read
Now that I'm older and my hair is white
I long for the day when it was sunny and bright
to be young and carefree and full of joy
to sing and laugh and not look ahead
to just be content with where I'm led
