We Walked

Every where we went,
We walked.
And trudging on the road,
We talked.

Talked about the things of life,
And what we did.
Mused about just what we liked,
And what we hid.

We confided all about each child,
Their sweet and smiling faces,
How they sang the old songs,
And danced with special graces.

We talked about the country lane,
In horse and buggy days.
Just how the people seemed to fare,
And the crudeness of their ways.

Yes...every where we went,
We walked by tens.
And to get back to our homes,
We walked again.
