Of The Things Stored High

Of The Things Stored High

 

Of the things stored high

Was my favorite baseball glove

And a little bike

That I was so proud of

 

There were boxes of books

In need of repair

And many heartfelt cards

To those with whom we cared

 

It was finding treasure

To find old photos too

Of our smiling faces

Forever in our youth

 

And when we found a prize

We shared it with each other

From daddy’s uniform

To quilts once our cover

 

After coming down

We knew that it was true

That the days gone by

Could be enjoyed anew

    Very true. Those things of the past that we find can bring back the most wondrous memories.

      Yes, goldfinch. Where would we be without our memories.
