Excerpt from The Verses: Sunshine and Song

On every shrub and bush we used to see; The skies above our heads were always blue, The woods held secrets deep for you and me; The hillsides had their caves where tales were told Of swart-cheeked pirates from a far-off clime, When cutlases were fierce and rovers bold Don't you remember - Once upon a time.

Once upon a time from sun to sun The hours were full of joy - there was no care, And webs of gaudy dreams in air were spun Of deeds heroic and of fortunes fair; The jangling schoolhouse bell was all the woe Our spirits knew, and in its tuneless chime Was all the sorrow of the long ago Don't you remember? - Once upon a time.
