Another Poem

In the land of my boyhood

In the land of my boyhood
dwelt a race of giants
tall and stern, male and female,
bound as if by law. I knew that 
someday I would be a giant too.

Seven decades have dissolved 
before my eyes, 
and strange to say,
although the giants got smaller
I never did become one.

Blessings,
