Sitting under the old oak tree,
That my grandfather had planted early one spring,
I remember.
A blanket, hand sewn by my grandmother
Neatly spread out, covering the soft green grass beneath,
I remember.
Inhaling the sweet scent of Honeysuckle
Wrapped around an old worn out, rusty fence,
I remember.
Watching the dog and cat playing a game of chase,
Around the farm house
I remember.
Hearing my grandparents call out my name
As it was time for supper,
I remember.
Memories are all I have now,
They have passed and found their place in Heaven
I will always love them dearly and keep them in my heart.
I will never forget the times we shared because,
I remember
