Road of Memories
I REMEMBER AS A CHILD WALKING THROUGH THE GRASS PLAYING WITH MY SIBLINGS.
LOOKING AT THE FIG TREE IN GRANNY'S BACKYARD AS SHE IS WATERING HER PLANTS.
THE GARDEN SHE CREATED IN HER BACKYARD TO MAKE A HOMELESS MAN SHOUT FOR JOY.
AS SHE SPRAYED US DOWN WITH THE HOSE IN THE SUMMERTIME WE THOUGHT WE WERE IN HEAVEN.
THE HONEYSUCKLES AND THE PECAN TREES FLOWING EVERYWHERE WE THOUGHT THE SUN JUST SHINED ON US.
AS WE LOOKED OUT IN THE MORNING WE SAW THE BIRDS SINGING THEIR OWN MELODY.
NOW AS I LOOK AT GRANNY'S OLD HOUSE IT DOESN'T LOOK THE SAME IT LOOKS LIKE IT NEVER EXSISTED.
ALL THE THINGS I REMEMBER AS A CHILD ARE JUST A MEMORY THAT I WILL HOLD IN MY HEART FOREVER.
