I Remember

I remember growing up
Warmth and love surrounding me
I remember growing up
Surrounded by friends and family

I remember growing up
My Nanny, Pop and Uncle Ed
I remember growing up
Mom and Dad and my own bed

I remember growing up
My plate and bowl and "Hoppy" mug
I remember growing up
My mom's warm and comforting hug

I remember growing up
Hunting with my "one-shoot" gun
I remember growing up
The fishing trips, the outdoors fun

I remember growing up
And so much more, and so much more
I remember growing up
