Itnow seems just so long ago <br />When I was but a child <br />Playing at soldiers, guns and war <br />It all seemed kind of wild <br /> <br />But now that I am older <br />It was but all in jest <br />Theres nothing at all thats glorified <br />That ends in some ones death <br /> <br />But then we were but children <br />And thatwas only play <br />And now that we are older <br />We should find some other way <br /> <br />Those games we played as children <br />I know they were pretend <br />But if we did'nt play them, in the first place <br />Maybe then the wars will end.<br /><br />Graham Jones<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/now-that-i-am-older/
