A box of early summer

An early summer air
Tasted very sweet and sour
They were singing a song
And I was dancing along

Surmising the weather
 Playing truth and dare
Making memories everyday
Youth was served in a tray

Despite of storm or thunder 
We all stayed with each other
The sun was smiling with us
Our heart was filled with warmth

We weren't living for a goal
We knew to live for the soul
We used to walk in that street
Where we shared thousands of stories 


We weren't running after the life cycle 
All we knew was to share a popsicle 
In an early summer breeze
We wished the time to freeze

I wish I could rewind that summer
Where we weren't running for a future 
I wish I could leave everything behind
And go back to live in that time

Hello Anika, your poem is very beautiful and touching. Life changes every minute and although we might not like those changes we have to accept them. Have a great day.
