Summers Gone By
Winter days have left us feeling so cheerful,
looking forward to those summer nights
just sitting outside smelling sweet summer air
so fresh, is delightful as can be.
Watching bright stars far away in the dark sky,
taking me back to days of my youth and
summer days of long ago,
when friends and I would tell
ghost stories until way past bedtime,
each night of the week, brought new
memories to store in our hearts to carry
with us to adulthood, wishing for those
days to return again, but knowing their
gone just like the falling stars we use
to see long ago.
