Those Days I Yearn

Hearing the notes of my favourite song, My emotions take me back, To days long gone, To a time of sweets and bubblegum, To those days of sandcastles, Beneath the bright sun. A journey through those Summer days, Enjoyed immensely, In so many ways. To that time when we laughed, At silly jokes, Remembering the faces, Of the old village folks. A time of love and hand me downs, A time of happiness, In our town. For those were the days, Never to return, The love for a life, Those sweet days I yearn. Jayne Louise Davies
