Life - Do You Remember Poem by Paul Warren

Do you remember swings in the park on a sunny day
Seeing how far you could swing the seat up and away
Do you remember the first splash of water on the beach
With the waves washing over your body in its reach
Do you remember kicking a goal on the oval ground
As end to end with mates laughing all together all around

Do you remember riding your bike in the dark time of the night
And seeing how bright the generator would burn the light
Do you remember the last day at school when the bell sounds
Knowing that the Summer days were fun forever to be found
Do you remember a hot Summer's day as the sun went down
With the coolness on your face as we drove around the town

Do you remember the sound of your father's car in the driveway as it turned
At the end of the day when his work was finished and the daylight was burnt
Do you remember standing in the back yard cold and windy before a storm
When the clouds danced with the lightning and thunder would be the norm
All these memories are stored away for all of your time
When life was happy and your happiness so sublime.
