Poems about Childhood
"The Angel that presided o’er my birth
Said, “Little creature, formed of Joy and Mirth,
Go, love without the help of anything on Earth.”
~
Into my heart an air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.
- A.E.Houseman
