I Don’t Remember Not Loving You©1998 Genea Parker I remember the day you were born, that cold February morn. I held you close to me. And when your first tooth came in, you smiled a lopsided grin. You were happy as could be. I remember your first day at school, swimming lessons in the pool, Roller-skating in the drive. Your energy truly amazed me; your enthusiasm gave me A reason to be alive. How could a parent forget the night we sat and wept Our old dog had died. Or the baseball games you won, summer picnics in the sun. We laughed till we cried. I remember the sorrow. I remember the joy. I remember when you handed me your new baby boy. I may have forgotten the times, you told me little lies. The times you didn’t tell the truth. But I don’t remember not loving you. ------------------ Thanks for taking the time to read. Comments welcome! :-) |
