childhood memories

I remember the days of my childhood The sun on my face, the grass beneath my feet I would run and play, not a care in the world Oh, those were the days, so sweet and fleet I remember the laughter, the joy, the fun The games we played, the stories we told I remember the love, the warmth, the sun Those memories, they never grow old I remember the taste of my mother's cooking The smell of freshly baked bread I remember the hugs and the kisses, the loving The warmth in my heart, it never fled Childhood memories, oh how sweet The laughter and the joy, can't be beat The endless summer days, spent running wild The endless games of make-believe, so carefree and mild I remember building forts and climbing trees Racing bikes and playing hide and seek The taste of ice cream on a hot summer day The sound of the ice cream truck, miles away The smell of cookies baking in the oven The sound of my parents' voices, soft and lovin' The taste of juicy watermelon on a hot summer day The feeling of sand between my toes, as I run and play Oh, childhood memories, they never fade They stay with me always, a comforting serenade Bringing back the happiness of days gone by Filling my heart with love and making me sigh Childhood memories, oh how sweet Of carefree days and dirty feet Running through the fields, the wind in our hair Laughing, playing, without a care Summer days spent splashing in the pool Water fights, cannonballs, and being cool Ice cream cones melting in the sun Fun and laughter, our day had just begun Autumn leaves, a crunch beneath our feet Jumping in the piles, a cozy treat Halloween costumes, trick-or-treating at night Sugary treats, a pure delight Winter snow, a magical wonderland Building snowmen, snowball fights on command Sledding down the hills, our cheeks all aglow Warming up by the fire, hot cocoa in tow Springtime flowers, a colorful sight Birds chirping, everything feels right Planting seeds, watching them grow The start of something new, we come to know
