A Wealth of Memories

 
 My heart is full as I recall
A wealth of memories,
Which can cheer my lonely days
And put my heart at ease.
 
My mind goes back to Mama
And a gentle, loving Dad,
A Grandma sweet and tender
And a dog that we called "Chad."
 
Faithful friends were cherished
And held in high esteem;
You greeted each tomorrow
As your dared to dream your dream.
 
Life was plainly simple,
Devoid of fear and hate,
When love of God or country
Were not up for debate.
 
If everyone would realize
How precious life can be,
They'd care for one another
And sweet memories achieve.
