Last night was a night full of memories
Going off to set a fire and play in the sea
Under the stars we sat with a violin & guitar
Two fireman came to check someones concerns
After radioing back reporting to was nothing but common sense
We continued with warming sandy toes into the next day
The boys used their built-in fire extinguishers, just for fun
As we smothered the last flames with stones knowing the tide will finish up
Strolling back past midnight all roads peaceful and safe
In the nocturnal hour nature sets us a different pace
Seeing life in the dark & the light
Showing all things have a place
When we slow down and listen
Giving the gifts we never had
This to me is being a parent
Memories fade in accessories
Nothing can be held out of a dream
I look forward to taking this life with me
