This week's prompt for Carry on Tuesday #88: "and that is how I remember them....."
I decided to give this one a try with a Pantoum.
...And that is how I remember them..
Little blonde haired playful boys
Pulling on their Mommy's hem,
Visions of clutter and lots of toys.
Little blonde haired playful boys,
Rippling laughter, streams of tears,
Visions of clutter and lots of toys,
So much excitement through the years..
Rippling laughter, streams of tears,
Time went by... boys became men
So much excitement through the years...
But I close my eyes, they're boys again.
Time went by... boys became men.
They found good women and married them.
But I close my eyes, they're boys again.
...and that is how I remember them.
