YEARS OF CAREFREE JOY
YEARS OF CAREFREE JOY
Land of joy, l passed you by when young.
It was in that house in which l lived
when my parents were around and filled
all the rooms with life quite free from care.
Food of peerless taste was offered there
to the children who should eat to grow.
Nothing in that house could bring us fear.
It did not exist in that old house.
Fear was hiding in the hearts of two,
who appeared to us so big and strong.
Under their strong wings, l pushed toy cars
on a carpet of oriental lines.

How could you pass by the "land of Joy" when you were young when, as you claim, you lived in it then?
And who are the two you speak of? Did they also live in the land of joy? If so, how could it be true that noting in that land was able to make you have fear?

I don't think you are serious about asking these questions. I am certain you are joking.
Another dodge of what I ask of you. And your "certainty" has no basis in fact.
Moreover, even if I **were** joking, why is that a reason not to answer what I asked?
Are there or are there not some contradictions in what you say?
