Once again I looked to the past <br />Photos helped me to see <br />My younger self appear again <br />Nestled in a box so faithfully <br /> <br />So long ago at Christmas time <br />We were younger then you see <br />My sister, Clara, brother, Robert <br />Who shared a childhood with me <br /> <br />Clara played piano at the church <br />Robert sang sweet harmony <br />We celebrated Jesus then <br />Loving Him so tremendously <br /> <br />Winters come and go that’s true <br />But you never forget the ones <br />When we were so much younger <br />Like in the snow having so much fun <br /> <br />And then there are the photos <br />Many years later of my children <br />Precious sweet happy smiles <br />When they too were very young <br /> <br />The years pass by so quickly <br />And each one we must treasure <br />Looking behind us from time to time <br />To remember yesterday’s pleasures<br /><br />Marilyn Lott<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/yesterday-s-pleasures/
