I remember...
When I was a toddler
I went out to play with my brother
In only my underwear and a shirt
I was so embarassed
I ran back inside

I remember...
When I was in the 5th grade
And broke my leg
Racing a girl
Oh stupid me
I couldn't stop in enough time
You see

I remember...
When I would sit in the back yard
And make mud pies with my cousin
What a mess?
We should have played with mud less

I remember...
Every summer walking to my cousin's house
And spending the day with him
And going to Food Lion
Buying mass quantities of food
Eating it when we got back to his house
Those were the days

I remember...
When my brother and sister
Would bribe me
To do dishes for them
With a dollar
And I fell for it

I remember...
The late night rides with my Dad
To the beach
I would run along the beach
With a flash light in hand
One time we even did this when I had bronchitis
Ran on the beach
In my nightgown and robe
It was fun.

I remember...

Cold hands means a warm heart

We all have memories.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!
