Leaves Memories

Dedicated to Robbie Philly and Boo (Robbie DOD 10/13/1986) In past autumn seasons there were we, Parents Bob and Jan kids Kim and Robbie. As a family we'd roll up our sleeves Tackle job of raking and piling leaves. Together we would work while having fun. Admiring leaf piles when raking was done. We'd call our dogs Philly and her pup Boo, Encouraging leaps into the high piles too. Dogs dived in and then the four of us too Leaping as one Bob Jan Rob Kim Philly and Boo. We'd disappear deep then we'd leap in the air Scattering those leaves to who knows where! Leaves are memories pressed deep in my mind As scrapbook pages of a much happier time. Autumn comes each year and when the leaves fall Think of Rob, Philly and Boo wish I could again hug them all!!!
