"childhood Dreams"

When I close my eyes and go to sleep....
I dream in places that take me deep....
Just where we can run and play....
A park in my mind where the two of us can stay...
There is swings and sandboxes all built around...
Shovels and buckets and a new slide we have found...
A flowing stream that's runs blue and clear...
Where we can swim and have no fear....
The sun stays out into the night...
Nothing to cloud this vision or blind my sight....
Still I wake with a smile only to remember those 
days as a child...
