Sweet Memories of Home

Oh, I recall the home of my childhood,
and those beautiful glassed French doors,
the sliding on shiny floors made of dark wood !
My sweet bedroom had an antique chest of drawers,
oh, a mansion like front staircase spiraled up, up, up, up,
and I will never forget the nooks where games were made-up !

Sam Kauffman Date: 10/22/2021 12:31:00 PM I always loved the French doors going into our living and dining rooms. This short verse brings back so many wonderful childhood memories of home, especially the "nooks." We had a window seat that was coziness on rainy days! Best of all wishes for the contest! Thanks for the trip back home.
