Take me back..

The smiles they run down the memory lane
And many more a time I skipped into girly laughter
You’ve held me close, I forgot all the pain
Your loving arms, held me, said love you daughter.

I sat by you, on the high stool, watched the kitchen pot
It wasn’t by choice, I rather play out mother
This room is so big, greasy, smelly, so hot
I ain’t gonna cook mum, so why bother

I’ll take my time come back from school
There’s so much I’ve spotted on the way,
I need to splash around, all road pools
Walk the neighbor’s barn, crash down in hay

I’ll come home sooner, roll over play with the dogs
Get up and define me, puppy & furry
I aint gonna sit down, no science or math logs
Oh what whatever, finish get done in a scurry

I’m out in the fields; this is where I want to be
Stand across watch the ripples of a flowing stream
Watch the wonders of the winds blow the green leaf on the tree
Smile away, cuddle dear, hold close my dream

Take me back; wind me to the little gal time
Waking up to the shy sunrise seeping thru the blinds
I’m standing here, poised beautifully tall
I’m searching within, there was this lovely gal I knew when small.
