friends and dogs and cats.
To be poor was no cause for shame.
All families fared much the same
and “good guys” in cowboy movies

Soon our lives were all rearranged
and altered by this strange
new world of today
The fables and fancies of youth
gave way to learning and to truth
and our cowboy heroes
all drifted away.
all drifted away.
