"Memories"

Playing basketball with a friend
Pillow fights on the bed


A hot day in the sun
Going swimming, spashing, having fun


The high school years have begun
A million times my phone must have rung


Church, zoos, parks, and broken hearts
Having fun at Mrytle Beach
Pleasure-filled times at the sea


Chasing the boys as a little girl around the tree
Smiling, laughing, sad and happy


It's summer, helping mother in the garden
I have memories of dinner and the bell ringing


Memories of you and me on the boat
The water sometimes warm, some cold
Sipping ice-teas or enjoying the warmth
Of the fire and hot choclate


Trips to Ohio, Orlando, and Kerr lake and the condo
Memories of long ago...


Santa and the Christmas tree
The falling snow looked pretty
Halloween, Easter's Jelly beans
The rough exciting years as a teen

Yep, being a teen is rough and exciting...for the most part anyway.  Exellent work here, it's always nice to look back on those memories, isn't it?

This was great. A wonderful, MEMORABLE read.
Hope to see more!
