Rides and dust, playing, frenzied

Carnival

I sit astride electric steed, 
Lost in carousel whirling. 
Rides and dust, playing, frenzied 
The sun so bright and blinding. 
Now I walk these well worn lanes 
Where once I ran in younger days 
Of joyous song, nothing remains, 
Desp’rate carnies and rides decayed. 
But comes a child, face full and bright 
Laughter riding with them 
Smiling, I turn back to my night 
Unwilling to my past condemn. 
In nights of trouble, strife and grief 
Savor joy, like youth, too brief.
