Whimsical days and starlit nights
Combine to arrange
My childhood memories delight
Close my eyes, and I’m there, at this instant
Remember the smell
Of the spring rain, long ago
How I loved that smell
Close my eyes, and relive it as though
I’m there… at this instant
Moonbeams shined
Star twinkled and danced
Fireflies waltzed to their own beat and time
Magical moments of hearts entwined
Singing their song of romance, and loves chance
Close my eyes, and I’m there, at this instant
Holding hands walking through the park
While dragonflies mating calls, echoed before dark
A gentle breeze, combined with the scent of the trees
To sing like a dove, of summer love,
Close my eyes, and I’m there, at this instant
Quiet of the snowfall, serves to remind
Smiles while skating, on frozen pond
Sneaked glances, at happiness dances
Frozen memories, of a different space and time
Close my eyes, and I’m there, at this instant
Echoes the memories, they always stir
Favorite memories, of the way we were
Blow like gentle winds, in my mind
Like sands in the hourglass, they pass through time
Close my eyes, and I’m there, at this instant
Magical moments, and heavenly scents
Come back to me, quietly, as the snowfalls outside
Hearts danced, music enhanced
In my heart, they will always reside
Close my eyes, and I’m there, …at this instant
