I Remember...

My childhood as if it was just yesterday,
Swinging so high, trying to touch the sky,
Climbing cherry trees in the month of July,
Running fast… climbing high, just the other day!

No worry… no reason to fear a stranger,
With an innocent mind, just being a child
Enjoying the seasons, enjoying the wild,
Surfing on the waves of life’s leisure.

Flying like the wind, on the horse’s rides,
Through branches and trees, up mounts and hills,
Riding fast enough … still feeling the thrills,
Of adventurous quest, within forever resides…
