A child as big as a pebble
Went skipping through the park
Looking at every flower
That once was me
A girl as bright as summer
Went wandering through the park
In a world of wooded contentment
That once was me
A girl lost in a dream world
Went strolling through the park
All she wanted was quiet and a young man
That once was me
A woman struggling with luggage
Went slowly through the park
All she knew was noise and children
That once was me
An old woman in thoughtless mood
Is sitting in the park
All she asks is a bench and stillness
That now is me
