CHILDHOOD by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: WITH JUST A THOUGHT FOR CHILDHOOD'S HOUR
Last Line: INTO THE LARGER PLACE.
Subject(s): CHILDREN; MEMORY; THOUGHT; YOUTH; CHILDHOOD; THINKING;

With just a thought for childhood's hour
When love first came to me,
These verses here are now inscribed
In loving memory;
That children may be first within,
Though given a small space,
For their minds quickly pass beyond
Into the larger place.
