Hershey Kisses

The cabin was on a dirt road we rode our bikes for miles it seemed always knowing where to go remember when Kevin got creamed? Over the land filled with rocks we'd kick the dust up in the air wearing our shoes and socks living without a care. We would go to the lake each day running to get there fast all day lond we'd play the time just seemed to last. Across the lake you could see all the oak surrounding the park we'd always stay passed three not leaving 'till it was dark. The water was crystal clear we swam all day long sometimes we even saw deer sat around and sang songs. From the corner of our spot where we'd jump unafraid, the dock was sturdy and hot Oh! the games that we played. Running back and forth for hours between the lake and the stream sometimes there were showers Doug would always make us scream. The days it was colder we'd pick berries bush by bush our fingers got purple and older Regan's bowl filled with mush. The nights we'd spend together with cinnamon toast and wishes not caring about the weather only about the Hershey Kisses. I miss the times we sewed pulling the threads too tight the patience that you showed to teach me how to do it right. I thank the Lord each day for leaving you here for us the memories will forever stay Thank you for your love.
