Close your eyes... And go back...Before the Internet or the
AIM,Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night...I'm
talkin' bout hide and go seek at dusk.Red light, Green
light.Playing kickball & dodgeball until your porch light came
on.Mother May I?Running through the sprinkler.Happy Meals,Watchin'
Saturday Morning cartoons;
Like Hey Arnold and Doug,Who could forget Snick,Your first day of school.Goodnight Kisses.Getting an ice cream off the ice cream truck,Jumpin' down the steps,Jumpin' on the bed,Pillow fights,Laughing so hard that your stomach hurt and you almost peed your pants.Being tired from playin' all day,Your first crush.Rainy days at school meant playing "Heads up 7-Up" in the classroom.Kool-Aid was the drink of the summer.When getting high was swinging on the swingset,When Toys r Us overuled the "mall"I want to go back to the time when...Decisions were made by going "eeny-meeny-miney-moe"Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming, "do over!"Money issues were handled by whoever was the banker in "monopoly"Being old, referred to anyone over 20.The worst thing you could catch from a boy was cooties.Nobody was prettier than Mom,Nobody was cooler than Dad,Scrapes and bruises were kissed and made better.Getting an inch of snow was a dream come true.Spinning around, getting dizzy and falling down was cause for giggles.
