I remember years past

All the good things you wished would last

Like jobs, cars and everlast

I remember talking to my mom,

She told me the only question you

Don’t ask is the one that’s dumb

I remember working a fine job

But beware, where’s the mob

I remember flying so high

Peeping out the window and seeing the sky

I remember my best friend

Thinking the friendship would never end

I remember meeting my wife

A talented girl, so very nice

I remember saying I do

To take this girl forever with you

I remember the birth of my son

13 years later he’s still the one

I remember being in a war

All it left me was a scar

I remember the spices of life

Today my best friend is my wife

That goes to show you without despair

To be really happy, it’s a family affair

The moral of this poem; what I’m trying to say

Life memories will always stay

I hope for you it’s a pleasant one

Memories that last forever;

The ones that’s always fun
