Leading Me To Sunday

Wasn't written in the scriptures you'd be found
twin bunnies hopping along side with the summer
little Ronny Johnson's sister tagging right along
stolen glances and secret kisses 
swinging together on the old tire swing
back before father called you home

That was then before painted memories
hung out on the front porch with lemon tea
refreshments sparkled a quite midnight sky
loving hands held in a most romantic way
warming hearts and projecting missed moments
waiting patiently for my Sunday to come again

Tim, sounds like a different world, and I guess it was. : ) Well done. To think of that time - hmm... You know, all in all I wouldn't want to go back, not through all those years before age 20 or so, anyway. ; )

Fried chicken Sundays, picnics and Aunt Ella telling you how much you've grown. Wish I could still hear her ask...
