Echoes of youth

In youth’s embrace, we danced carefree, With laughter’s echo, joy did we decree. Each dawn a canvas, vibrant and bright, New reasons to wake, with sheer delight. Yet as we aged, the hues did shift, Life’s challenges, a heavy gift. Through hardship’s veil, we strive to thrive, Surviving the storm, hoping to revive. Though the colors fade, and worries press, Within our hearts, youth’s light does bless. For in the memories of days gone by, Life’s beauty still sings, beneath the sky.
