Back in the Day!
Chosen by Paul...
WBS 1/27/14
I remember the time...
We used to wake up early in the morning on a summer day
just after sun would rise
we would find a team
some turners, some jumpers
we had to fulfill our double dutch high
we could not get enough
we would jump all day
no time to stop and eat
or even allow our little sisters to play
I remember the time...
We pretended to be super heroes
racing in the yard
we would climb up on the picnic table
and think "flying can't be hard"
we would make up new adventures
and create our own worlds
where everyone was equal
no just boy and girl
I remember the time...
We were excited to go to school
we had an unrequited love
or was it just a crush
we would try to get his attention
and when he calls on us,
we would just blush
I have to remember these times
because I admired my youth
a time when my heart was pure
a time when I thought love was connected to truth.
