Remember when
We played with chalk
Our imagination
Painted in rainbow hues
They lined the street
Our footsteps
Lifted and spread the
Dust from our
Dreams

Remember when
School was an adventure
We pretended to be
Pilots and jockeys
The green grass field
Was any world we
Made it to be
Learning was exciting
History was social studies
Spelling was mandatory
But it wasn't hard.
Remember when
Our classmates were
Our friends

Remember when
We planned our whole lives
In secret codes and
House floor plans
We were inseparable
Lived lives together
Shared our families
Thought and blinked and
Breathed the same
I loved you then
Still love you now
That feeling's gone to
Ash
