Watch the sand in sunlight glisten as it trickles from your hand
We are memories
Hear faint voices if you listen your attention they'll command
Our days stretch on forever
Come with us as friends we'll take you wake you from your current sleep
Hear the laughter of the children
Gaze with eyes renewed of wonder on these sights they're yours to keep
Long forgotten
now remembered
Build your castles fight your dragons claim this kingdom as your own
We are memories
Cast aside the form which holds you for its' use you have outgrown
Our days stretch on forever
Come with us as friends we'll take you wake you from your current sleep
Whisper touch of sand through fingers
Let us linger
for a moment
in the present
woke from sleep.

I think that we all have some very special 'recess' memories... You've penned a great reminder to us all.  Savor the memories indeed - They are special ones...

Nicely done, Doc - great metaphors, BTW..
