Childhood Memories. A scarlet blanket of autumn leaves. Chilling wind that ruffles the trees. Amber glows with distant scenes. Sunsets inspire my nightly dreams. Leaves are dancing with the air. Fond old memories I now share. Footballs in spirals all afternoon. Holding hands by the light of the moon. Baseball bat, a ball, and a glove. Childhood memories that I love. Playing for fun and not for the game. Most of these memories are the same. Bikes speeding down Rock Street hill. Cards in the spokes gave a thrill. A wooden box filled with sand. A tree house with a view so grand. A string and a tail to fly a kite. Flashlight tag on into the night. Red Rover, Red Rover, and Kick the can. Funny music signals the ice cream man. Spin the bottle and truth or dares. Hide and go seek and musical chairs. Catching the fish in the stream. Fond memories that I now dream. © Mike Dimond 2000 Please take the time won't cost a dime.
