the first stanza of the childhood begins with the question when did my childhood go but the last stanza begins with the where did my childhood go? do you think that change is significant

Dear Student,
Given below is the answer to your question.

He agrees that he had a joyful childhood but is confused as to when he lost it. However, towards the end he realises that it was not a time period when he lost his childhood, but it was somewhere along life's journey that he lost it. It is significant because it was not the growing up or the age that made him lose his childhood but it was the circumstances that led to it.
