Memoriesfrom childhood stay with us forever,

Takingus where we have been and will go,

Piecesof life that live on and will never

Letus forget we were young long ago.

SometimesI wander back into those shadows,

Quietlybeing who I used to be,

Bringingto life all the joys and the sorrows,

Daysthat can’t die while they still live in me.

Holidayslinger and happy times glisten;

Ican see everyone active and well.

Ican still hear them if only I listen,

Feelingeach motion and breathing each smell.

Lifehas such treasures that time’s always stealing;

Nothingcan ever entirely stay.

Whileyou are young, you can capture each feeling;

Makeall the memories you can every day.
