Sweet Memory

Hold on to me,
I will shield you from the rain.
I will listen to your laughter carried
by the wind,
across the bay,
across the water.
Hold my hand,
I will shelter you
from the wind,
we will breathe in the evergreen,
it will be like Christmas morning ,
when your eyes are wide,
filled with sparkle,
and wonder.

  10. I think that sparkle says it all. That's what I remember the most when I think of my fondest memories. It's the sparkle you can see and feel.
