Old Song Poem by William Kofoed

As I walk alone

I realize

I'm whistling a old song

I learned many years ago

When listening to the radio

I think of all those years

When all seeming to sweeter

Than it does today

Life felt better then some how

Love burned brighter hotter too

How long it's been

Since I first heard it

How long it has been

Since I've heard it played

Softly now I sing the words

Thinking of how it felt back then

The old song brings it back

Takes me back

To so long ago
