Watch your memories when they come out to play

My memories came out to play ~

 

They climbed the jungle gym

and let the swings carry them

to soaring heights of elation

 

They ran the track

at lightning speed,

and passed the baton

from one to the other

 

Then down the long, slick slide they slid

          landing hard

in the gravel…

 

If you let your memories

out to play,

 

expect some tears.

Just thinking about how a joyful memory can lead to a sad one...

funny how many memories
(good and bad)
are bouncing around inside of our heads.
Some hiding,
some nagging at us daily
...this is a great write,
i really like that last line

Thank you, Serenus! This is a time of year that id full of memories for me, and most of them are happy - but if I let them flow too freely, they lead to the tough ones. Glad you could relate to this.
