I remember
The heat
And the bugs
The lazy bay, in the forest
Muddy
Filled with filthy water
Theres our beautiful boat
Lying at ready
Looking peaceful and happy
Oh those days!
Those happy days! so filled with adventure
Whether swimming in the bay or exploring the forest
We explored the forest
When we moved
Years ago they were
So long ago
They were the best years of my entire life
Good years were always enjoyed
They were days of freedom, pain free, love and laughter.
How I miss them
Relaxing at nights
Out on the bay,
No wind, no sails, a simple concert of noises of the night and the breezes
Watching the deer cross our property line
Those were years to enjoy
Indeed they were
Those cool nights
On the bay
Listening to the wind and waves
As we passed good food and good memories that we had
All those years with friends
And foes alike
Laughing and crying alike
The memories are like the tide
They come in without warning
Alas those days are so far past
Yet I still smile
As they pass along in my mind like all the sailing races I enjoyed.
