I remember

When I was young
yes I remember back then
things always seem better
the puddles seemed wetter
my grandparents pet setter
seems giant to me

Their house was of magic
I remember back then
There was colourful mats
There was a big room with hats
and another for cats
that all sat on a chair

Their garden seemed massive
I remember back then
The garden had rosies
and big purple poses
that smelt nice to young noses
and a lawn that was green

In the centre of the lawn
I remember back then
was a pond full of fishes
that granted my wishes
and were served up on dishes
and went well with chips

I used to play in the fields
I remember back then
The time was forever
as I ran through the heather
in any type of weather
I didn’t care what
