About the Poem
Why is it that it always seems that things were so much better when you were younger? Whether there is truth in this impression or our perceptions are merely tainted in the process of reflection, this poem is about the desire to go back and relive the past.

| I'm trying to find my days gone by My sunsets and my trees I'm trying to find my happy days When my soul was light and free I'm searching for my fairy tale My once upon a time I'm searching for that long ago When joy and youth were mine I'm following my trail of tears To dances in the rain To hills of hope and tenderness Of bitterness and pain I'm opening every sealed- up door To see what I might find And oh, the view revealed to me The springtime of my mind And once again I'll run and laugh In my own Elysian field To memories so close and dear I gratefully will yield |
