O Time and Change!

When we were kids together, Can you that time recall? And played 1 along the shady lane, Beneath the maples tall, You then were nine and I was ten, And oft I’d say, in fun— Just think, Jane—you’ll be twenty when I come to twenty-one!” But when I came to twenty-one, A gawky youth and green, I wondered how the trick was done— For you were just eighteen! Then luring fortune beckoned me The world I wandered o’er; I got back home at thirty-three And found you twenty-four! And now I’m getting old, indeed— These gray hairs make that plain; My flower of youth has gone to seed— Pray, what's the secret, Jane? I'm lost—l know not what to do— O cruel fate that’s mine; For lo! I now am forty-two, While you’re but twenty-nine! —Cleveland Leaver.
