I wish back the days of happiness and youth
When the leaves turned orange our collages were hung on refridgerators
I wish back the days when lilacs bloomed in full
The smell would fill neighborhoods as we played all day
I wish back the days when it turned cooler during the night
And lightening bugs flickering as if tempting us to catch them
I wish back the days when rain filled the night
And nightcrawlers would come out and we would hunt them with flashlights
I wish back the days when the clouds were bright and puffy
Amd we would lie on our backs and see figures in the sky
I wish back the day when our doors were left open
So childrens laughter could fill the night fallen air
I wish back the day when we thought rainbows were miracles
And we dreamed of little leprechans and all the piles of gold
I wish back the day when friends and families gathered for no reason at all
They would see a couple of cars and stop to say hello
I wish back the days when McDonalds was a treat
Not a fast food resturant that made us fat as we eat
I wish back the days when your neighbors were friends
And having 5-10 kids spend the night was as normal as it got
I wish back the moment when I had my first love
To have that feeling once again would be a moment of bliss
I wish back the days when softball games where held with no notice at all
Little kids, big kids sometimes no kids at all
I wish back the days when we thought 20 and 30 were old
We would be seven and never get that old
I wish back the days when we could wade in the stream
Not having to worry about it being filled with bottles and trash
I wish back the day when the puddles were deep
And we would jump through them without a second thought and glee
I wish back the days when life was so simple
We knew what we wanted and would always be happy
I wish back the days when we thought about marriage
Prince Charming would come and we would live happily ever after
I wish back the days when we thought nothing of tomorrow
Expect whose house we'd swim at or sledding in the winter
I just wish back those times, every moment and second
I would cherish them at that time and not 35 years later
Take a moment to smell the flowers, rediscover lightning bugs, lie on your back and see the clouds, wonder what's at the end of the rainbow, and most importantly, cherish the now for it changes in a minute. Life has a way of flying by to fast. So slow down and take your time..You will never have a chance to live that moment again.
