Fond Remembrances

Fond Remembrances

The months, the years, so swift pass by
 And often, I have pondered as to why
 We can't slow them as they fly
 Some moments, to savor longer

 Many pleasant times that I recall
 When I wasn't very old at all
 Flat on my back to grass I'd fall
 To watch cotton clouds, float by

 Then other times, from memories sweet,
 At end of day with summer's heat,
 My dad would bring us kids a treat
 And let us make some sodas

 But now we're older, me and you
 Unsure of what it is we do
 To retain the warmth of love so true
 With which our Lord, has blessed us

 These are the good old days, my dear,
 That we'll recall in distant year
 A soft, sweet song is what we'll hear
 As we remember them, together
