Answer 1

Lonely I wander, through scenes of my childhood,
It brings back sweet memories, of happy days of yore,
Lonely the heart now, the house stands deserted,
No light in the window, no welcome at the door...........

Isn't it strange Apple B, that such a little thing can break you up. I get it regularly when I return home to Ireland. Such little things - how about collecting the milk in the morning?

Sweet Maisie.

Milk didn’t come in bottles, when we were little boys,
So going to the dairy, was one of life’s true joys,
For if it were sweet Maisie, who served you out the measure,
The extra cup was yours to sup, a memory to treasure.

Kathleen only gave us, exactly what she should,
At times a little ‘tilly’, we always prayed she would,
The youngest of the sisters, I now forget her name,
Was quite as bad as Kathleen, and dished out just the same.

Old Tom, the three girls’ father, and the owner of the farm,
Never used the measure, to him it was the norm,
You see, he never had a son, and treated all us boys,
With lots of cream from off the top, and pence to buy small toys.

The level mark inside the can, that my mother scratched,
Had to be watched closely, to ensure that the milk matched,
For if you got too greedy - drank more than Maisie gave,
My Mum would note the difference, and fly into a rave.

But last time I was over there, the farm it is now gone,
New cottages and houses, the land is built upon,
Yet as I stood and looked around, I saw the corner stone,
Where I would drink, the extra milk, before I wandered home.

So God Bless you, Tom Costello, though sadly now not here,
And to his lovely daughters, to them I raise a cheer,
To Kathleen and the youngest, who sometimes drove me crazy,
I thank you all, for what you gave, but especially you Sweet Maisie.

Answer 2

Probably your subconscious tugging at your ego ... what things could I have done differently and why is my grammar so poor even now etc. Was my English teacher to blame or was I a hopeless case; things like that.
So when you walk through the field is again which you haven't done for year is and find some animal is to see on the way; you can make yourself feel better by just traipsing through those fields you haven't seen in years and trying to spot those animals. Forget about lost youth; you haven't even started there yet.

Answer 3

I'd say, with all respect, that you probably are not satisfied with your life now. Try and focus on the positive things you have now and look back at your youth with a smile.

Answer 4

i think just change in general can be very depressing. or if you feel like your life isn't as good now as it used to be. i feel the same way when i come across things that i used to love when i was little.

Answer 5

And a realisation of how fast time flies by.
