Do you remember <br />When we chased the chickens <br />Up the slippery green hills <br />Before the chickens got sick <br />And the hills turned brown? <br />Do you remember <br />When we folded the news <br />And made paper windmills <br />Before the news was important <br />And the economy went down? <br /> <br />Do you remember <br />Near that wooden bridge <br />Where we cast our lines <br />Before the bridge was broken <br />And the river was a dump? <br />Do you remember <br />When we set out in a barrow <br />To climb that big pine <br />Before the woodsmen came <br />And left us a big stump? <br /> <br />Do you remember <br />When you fell off the boat <br />By the lake in the rain <br />Before we sold the boat <br />And we had no more fish to savour? <br />Do you remember that time <br />You made me cry <br />Because of a poem you wrote? <br />If you do, <br />I hope this returns the favour.<br /><br />K.
