………………………………………………………………………………………………

balmy wind blowing

through the sun dappled trees

lazing around in the shade

shadows playing hide and seek

…………………

eyes heavy with slumber

the cosy bed beckoning

the sweet sound of a lullaby

 happy dreams came calling

…………………

 playing childhood pranks

on young and old alike

oh give me back those days

no worries, no strife

………………………

there was laughter and fun

life was like a dream

 i relive them through my kids

with happiness my eyes gleam
