do you remember your childhood dreams
summertime excitement and cold ice creams
the glint of sunshine on your hair
as you stood and wanted at the summer fair
coconut shys and lucky dips
sticky fingers and candy floss lips
the flashing lights and thumping beat
your tired eyes and aching feet
your worn out legs so tired and heavy
your daddies arms are strong and steady
he holds you close his voice so clear
his soothing words ring in your ear
place you head upon my chest
his cuddles warm this is the best
this is a memory so strong and clear
a lovely memory of yesteryear
This poem just tells my story. It just bought tears to my eyes. These are my memories. Exactly these. Don't have these anymore. Don't have my father loving me like this anymore. I go to bed...
