DO YOU REMEMBER?


Do you remember those days & can you recall?

Our house was so big, with wide & echoing hall,

But now it looks so small & the hall´s just a porch,

Where once we sat, when the summer so scorched.

 

Remember Granddad, as he whistled through spittle?

While he carved his wood & tiny figures would whittle,

And our dear Grandma, would make us all apple pie,

While we lay on our backs & watched clouds going by.

 

Do you remember those days, of long lasting seasons?

When all knew their places & all knew their reasons,

When families were strong & all neighbours were fine,

When outdoors was freedom, those were good times.

 

Remember, church on all Sundays & mealtimes together?

Recall? No matter the problems & whatever the weather,

God ruled the good roost & always watched from above,

Do you remember those days, of our lives based on love?
