563 I could not prove the Years had feet lyrics

I could not prove the Years had feet —

Yet confident they run

Am I, from symptoms that are past

And Series that are done —

I find my feet have further Goals —

I smile upon the Aims

That felt so ample — Yesterday —

Today's — have vaster claims —

I do not doubt the self I was

Was competent to me —

But something awkward in the fit —

Proves that — outgrown — I see —
