Remnants of hot summer days
Remain in my heart
Days of double dutch, tag
Jacks, dodge ball, have made a depart
Lessons of friendship, community
Acceptance, family and humility
Still lovingly lingering
Hardships, trials of life
Showing no immunity
Gratitude, compassion, thankfulness
Rising steadily

Thank you, David! Sometimes as kids we rush to grow up not realizing how good we have it. The fun and happy times of just being. I carry the joy with me as much as possible. 🙏💛
