Memories

Today I was walking
On a street in my town
I came across  a big white house
With a carefully manicured lawn.

I saw a little boy
Playing in the sand
Running his trucks to and fro
My mind drifted to another land.....

The days when I once had a little boy
Who loved to play in sand
And picked me little flowers
And placed them in my hand.

Who loved to yell  "Mommy"
When a butterfly landed near
Who looked at me for answers
A boy who had no fears.

A child who loved life
As I taught him to do
Who gave of himself
But left this world to soon

Tears slid down my face
As I watched the little boy
Remembering my own son
When my life was filled with joy.

I sighed a big sigh
As the memories ran through my mind
Of another sandbox long ago
And the many things my son said.

When ever I see a child
Around the age of five
I always get the "memories"
Of our life before he died.

I touch a dandelion
When it's white and turned to "Fluff".
I remember my birthday flowers
And how the weeds meant so much.

I have only my memories
After all the years gone by
I still can't help my heart,
I still sit down and cry.
