Remembering Back

On Sunday

The 16th

I turned on

The radio

To hear songs

From 15 years ap

Days when I lived

At home

My needs met

By family

Music takes me

Back to a smoother time.

Meals were cooked

Dishes were washed

Bills were paid

Grass was mowed

Everything was done

Leaving me to dream

About the future.

The future

Is here.

Rent and bills

I pay

Every Sunday Morning I

Go back to my care-free days.
