For My Sister
I remember when we used to laugh the day away,
When our best times were underneath a tall tree
Where we raked leaves into playland dreams.
I remember when we spent those fall days at play.
I remember when we used to laugh the day away,
When our warmest times were hiding in tunnels of snow
Where we built walls of castles to rule the world around us.
I remember when we spent those winter days at play.
I remember when we used to laugh the day away,
When our loudest times were right after those rains
Where we romped through the gutters with joyful laughter.
I remember when we spent those spring days at play.
I remember when we used to laugh the day away,
When our quietest times were lying in the grass as the sun set
Where we dreamed together of magical fairytales yet to come.
I remember when we spent those summer nights at play.
I remember how we lived and how we laughed
And how we cried…
I hope someday we find our way back
Into each other's busy lives!
