An Autumn Evening

An autumn evening watching the sunset. As the sun kisses the earth where they met. The orange slivers of light between the trees, somehow puts your mind at ease. It can take you back long ago. When you were a child, with a bright glow. Just playing in the yard with your family. Running around just being free. You remember your innocence and carefree mind. Wishing for that youthfulness we want to find. There was something about that atmosphere. It made everything bad just disappear. We had our whole lives to look forward to. We had the opportunity to do what we wanted to do. But when your a kid there is no point in looking ahead. Because those were the greatest days of our lives, enough said.
