  1. The Changing World

    Share Share Post
    This world changed since first on me.
    The sunbeams smiled and glowed
    The coach and four is not to more
    The auto rules the road.
    Far far up in the fleecy blue
    An airship greets my gaze
    While forth and back the aeroplanes
    Are cutting through the haze.
    And I sit in my front room
    My heart is all unfurled
    For the radio sings to me
    Tells of a changing world.
