These Have I Loved

These have I loved Sitting under oak trees in the cool summer's grass Holding hands with someone I love Counting the stars in a summer's night sky Feeling the sea breeze tug a my hair The warm ocean spray on my sun kissed skin Running barefoot Smelling wildflowers Swinging on swings under a setting sun Roasting marshmallows around a campfire These have I loved Laughing uncontrollably Looking at old photo albums Staying up late and sleeping in My dog after a hard day Catching fireflies just before dusk Sweet lemonade touching my lips Sitting on porch swings Laughing with friends Living my Life These have I loved
