Poem Artwork

 


Remembering a time gone by
when it snowed, on sleighs we'd fly
snowball fights were a merriment
toasting marshmellows on open fires
we were content


In summer instead of snow it was sand
On beaches we'd build castles so grand
Run into the water as waves recede
Race back to shore as they rush in
on our faces a happy grin


Carefree days at the Jersey shore
Who could ask for anything more
Our bungalow filled with fun galore
My childhood from June to September


Now all I can do is remember
I walk the boardwalk in my mind
Seeing us as we were back then
Seagulls song  memories so strong


And as summer gave way to fall
Which rushed into winter,the snow
Once again  brought us pleasure and
As flakes fell we'd remember our plans
For when we would return to the sand


 So goes our life cycle married to the seasons


etw

This is a charmer, Eileen. I loved the trip back to your beach memories. I have a few of my own...those family times when I was very young on Saint Simons Island in Georgia. I am reminded of so many things when I go back there and see that part of the world little changed...except for the much improved pier where we caught crabs in baskets. And the snow...well those socks for mittens and returning soggy and frozen home are as keen in my mind as the flexible flyer that wisked me down icy roads and in hopes school would be cancelled for many more days.

Love, Taylor
