Found this while looking through my notes app. From 2025
It's 1:00 in the morning and I have to get up at 6 but...
I'll never forget the late night snacks
The long, loud, quiet and short rides to and from school
Or the bantering in the back of the classrooms
I'll never forget the long and deep conversations at midnight
The laughter and jokes we shared between us
Or the probes and jestering to get on eachothers nerves
I'll never forget the family Bible readings
The good ones and the bad
Or the dinner table conversations about almost everything
I'll never forget the layouts of each house
The holes and scratches in every room
Or the memories they all hold that we only know
I'll never forget the animals we raised
The sheep, pigs, chickens, dogs, fish, cats, mice, rabbits, birds etc.
Or the driveway to the barn we all treaded so much
I'll never forget the school hallways
The bustling racket, and all the slow walkers
Or the classroom chattering while the teacher almost blows up
I'll never forget my childhood though I must move on
All the best times off my life with the people and places I love
Or the small priceless memories with each sibling
I miss my childhood where responsibilities were getting dressed and making my bed
When nap time still existed and school was fun
And when we weren't restricted by society and reputation
❤️
