Memories We Made

Laughter about us While the children play The sunshine has faded The sky turned grey An innocent child Out in the rain Sounds of a distant Yet inbound train These are the things Of a neighborhood park With playground and benches Tables and basketball court A dog walks his owner Gentle rain subsides Still behind the clouds The sunshine hides No one is leaving Due to this spring shower Drops of water Collect on the flowers As day turns to night The rain comes to a stop A child tells his father “Daddy, you rock” Headed home from the park After a long day Loving the memories That our family made
