When You Were A Child Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Now, be happy as before,
When you were a child
And not so self assured
With your way about.
Your innocent was sweet,
When you were a child;
With playgrounds on the street,
Full of laughter in a crowd.
Your life was all so neat,
When you were a child.

Then there came this day,
You had to grow all up;
You dropped out from play
And became a grown up man,
But always you remembered this:
When you were a child,
Because every moment is
To know your way around;
So hold on to that wish,
When you were child.
