At the Age of 8 or 9


I remember a time
when I was a lad
and all of my life
was wonderfully sad.

I had no friends,
all I knew were some ghosts
who would haunt my night.
I waited upon them
during the twilight.

I remember a time
when I was a lad
and all of my life
was excitingly sad.

Despite no friends
there were baseball cards
and motion picture shows,
while at home I had
records and radios.

I had some friends.
