~Midnight Memories~

Red Roses - oh how they smell

Clusters of Daisy’s by passing years swell

Yes, how I remember them all so well

All the tales that I could tell!

Snap Dragons arising so tall

Sweet Alyssum’s creeping along delicate and small

Night Blooming Cactus climbing the wall

In Memory I still walk amongst them all!

Chasing fluttering Butterflies

Gray Fluffy Cat with yellow eyes

Aroma of baking Cherry pies

A Summers Dream that never dies!

Childhoods sweet Memories

Swinging beneath the Walnut trees

Falling off bikes and scraping knees

Let me not forget those Wonder filled years -God Please!

Hot Cocoa steaming in the air

Innocent World without a care

Oh how I wish I could go back there

Not much more time to spare!

The Days are passing way too fast

Nothing good now seems to last

Nightly Dreams are all of the past

Now that Fate’s Die hath been cast!

Heavenly Father hold my hand

If someday soon I leave this land

I  make of Thee only one demand

Please leave some of the Best Memories,

Imprinted in the Sand!
