Those Winter Fridays
Those winter Fridays after school
We run home, changed and fetched wood
We played poker, sung and danced
Told stories and joked and laughed
We made fire and warmed ourselves
And stayed quite, listening to the drifting rain
We made clay toys and played with
As mom was making dinner
Those winter Fridays after school
We fought and forgave each other
We are and went to bed
We were young and happy
What happened to us brethren
What happened to us?
