Memories of Summers Past

Sparkling sunlight, fluffy feathers

a swish of breeze in sunny weathers

song birds singing in branches up high

blue skies, bright sun, oh for a gentle sigh

strawberries and cream served with lemonade

sat on a picnic blanket in the cooling shade

children running, laughing all around

playing hide and seek until they`re found

shapes in the clouds or making daisy chains

and watching the trails made by aeroplanes

these are memories I hold so dear

wonderful summer times from yesteryear!
