When They Were Samll I'd like to recall them The songs I sung for them When our three children were small. I made up the lyrics, Sometimes in hysterics We'd laugh at the fun of it all. They'd cuddle in bed then After prayers and the Amen Their daddy would come down the hall. We'd give hugs and kisses To our son and young misses; When our three children were small.

Dear Joyce, You've awakened the reminiscing mood in me. *sigh* maybe a follow-up poem would be: "Now that we're old" or something like that..for me, being with my grandkids brings me back to "those days", for a while. |

This was really sweet. A recollection of early years of parenting and the treasured moments of childhood. Death is not extinguishing the light; it is putting out the lamp because the dawn has come. Rabindranath Tagore Poet, Philosopher |

Oh, how true this is. I was just singing to my grandsons the other day - and had a case of dejavu'(spell?). Remembering my daughter at their age singing with me. This is lovely. hugs, Chris "Nunc scio quit sit amor." |

Dear Joyce, so, at last I find that I wasn't so silly afterall when I played those crazy games with my little ones. The games they remember with such fondness today..Thanks dear Joyce, for the memories. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |
