Long Ago (a perfect time), 1971

Long ago, at least it seems long ago--
The sky was blue,
The grass was green,
The trees were tall and majestic,
But man took it away, and it died.


Long ago, at least it seems long ago--
There were no bombs,
There were no wars,
There was no hate or bigotry,
But man didn't like man, so he killed his fellow man.


The judge tried man for his murder--
But the man didn't care--
He killed the judge, and man conquered.


Long ago, at least it seems long ago--
Life was calm,
Life was peaceful,
Life was beautiful,
But man took life away,
He was a great man.
