I Remember Poem

I remember when I used to play in the playground with my childhood friends,

The way the tire rubber smelled against my feet,

And how the beautiful flowers always smelled in the spring.

I remember the cookies that the parents packed for lunch,

Like cookie dough ice cream melting on a hot summer day,

The Grass's  touch was invigorating when rolling down the hill beneath you,

It was a hot, wet cloth that wrapped you all up.

I remember how large the trees were when blocking the sun,

How the branches swayed in the wind.

Each time I recall this memory, exciting and happy thoughts pass my mind,

Thinking of how seeing everyone made me feel,

The way I was at the playground.
