EXPERIENCE, by FREDERIC FAIRCHILD SHERMAN First Line: One loved me once, I cannot tell you how Last Line: Insidious sin stole innocence away! Subject(s): Experience; Innocence | |||
One loved me once, I cannot tell you how Save that it was as no one loves me now. Playmates in childhood we, -- the one sweet place Of refuge from the world was our embrace. Contented were we in our dream and free From ridicule that mocks the memory. So short the time, -- it seems as but a day.
