Memories

As the evening shadows fall,
The lengthening of the trees so tall;
As you lie around in the hammock.
Let the lights twinkle around,
Starlight and happy memories shall enjoin.

You think of memories which you have stocked,
There are many of them good and bad,
But we shall stop to think of pleasant ones.

It is those which evoke within us,
Feelings of a varied kind;
Sometimes when we lie in thought,
We think of dreams we sought,
Some achieved, some forsaken,
And in that arises a feeling of thankfullness,
That we have enriched our life with happiness.
