In the Woods

In the woods near my home,
As a lad, I would roam.
It seemed big, way back then;
Kids are smaller than men.

So much to see in there;
Visit a friendly bear,
Pirates’ treasure to find,
Many tales fill the mind.

Explored for hours on end;
Whole days there, I could spend.
Back home, asked what I’d done,
Told Mom “No, nothing, none.”
