MY LOST YOUTH Often I think of the beautiful town That is sotted by the sea; Often in thought go up and down The pleasant streets of that dear old town. And my youth comes back to me. And a verse of a Lapland song Is haunting my memory' still: A boy’s will is the winds will. And the thoughts of youth arc long, long thoughts. I remember the black wharves and the slips. And the sea-tides tossing free. And Spanish sailors with bearded lips. And the beauty and mystery of the ships. And the magic of the sea. I ctm sec the brcc2v dome of groves. The shadows of [Peering s Woods; And the friendships old and the early loves Come back with a Sabbath sound, as of doves In quiet neighborhoods. Strange to me now arc the forms I meet When I visit the dear old town; But the native air is pure and sweet. And the trees that oershadow each well-known street, As they balance up and down. And Dccring’s Woods are fresh and fair; And with joy that is almost pun My heart goes back to wander there. Arid among the dreams of the days that were 1 find my lost youth again. And the strange and beautiful song The groves arc repeating it still: A boy’s will is the wind’s will. And the thoughts of youth arc long, long thoughts.
