Memories are very important, don`t ever want to lose them.

Box of Memories

My little box of memories

contains a life time of thoughts

mostly there are good ones

but some tied me up in knots.....

these mementos are personal

for they mean so much to me

photos, tickets and clippings

all locked up with a little key

birthday greetings from my parents

and my first valentine`s card

to pictures painted by my kids

parting with them would be too hard

all these memories, I want to keep

protecting them now, that`s my aim

so I will lock them safely away

for losing them would be such a shame !
