I Remember

memory flashes

I remember growing up,
Warmth and love surrounding me.
I remember growing up,
Surrounded by friends and family.

I remember growing up,
My Nanny, Pop and Uncle Ed.
I remember growing up,
Mom and Dad and my own bed.

I remember growing up,
My plate and bowl and “Hoppy” mug.
I remember growing up,
My mom’s warm and comforting hug.

I remember growing up,
Hunting with my “one-shoot” gun.
I remember growing up,
The fishing trips, the outdoors fun.

I remember growing up,
And so much more, and so much more.
