Up In The Attic
Up in the attic, I’m sitting on a rug,
Looking at pictures that give my heart a tug.
Years have passed since I last took the time,
To explore these memories that linger in my mind.
These precious pictures, many yellowed with years,
How they brought back laughter and a few tears.
There’s a picture of a little boy sitting on his daddy’s knee,
I could hardly believe that little boy was me.
With a big old smile, and the reddish of hair,
A typical kid without a care.
I treasure my childhood and the time with my dad,
As these pictures took me back to all the fun that we had.
From birth to college, there were pictures for every year,
Oh how I wish I could go back to when my father was here.
