A Day So Long Ago |
There was a day so long ago When people lived off the land Horses ran on the Plains Life was hard when the Seasons changed Hunting for food before Winter set in Wild animals and Indians Were not your friends What was it like sleeping on the ground Wolves howling shrilly In the middle of the night Struggling this way just to live Must have been a terrible fright Snuggling down in the covers tonight Makes me realize our Forefathers And all of their plights I am thankful for where I sleep tonight Here at home upon my sheets of white Written by: S.
