A Distant Memory Poem by Jayne Louise Davies

We gazed upon the daisies
Beneath the summer sky,
Relishing the moment
As butterflies danced by.

A moment of my childhood
That seems so long ago,
But yes i still remember,
Those places we did roam.

Upon the valley mountain
We'd look to yonder far,
In the days of mines and coal,
Not many owned a car.

The village streets then bustling
The sounds of laughter heard,
For children shared the sunshine,
Together, as free as a bird.

Oh how i wish to go back,
To those long lost days,
The memory's in my heart and soul,
Forever there to stay.
