Sailing through the sea of grass
With my daddy and little sister by my side

Bare feet feeling the grass soft touch
like daddy's soft, warm hugs

Playing silly game of hide and seek
Perhaps we would find some clover leaves

Chasing the butterfly through its path
Swimming in the lake for that early morning bath

Meandering along the riverside
Wondering where all the toads might hide

Seeing my Daddy's face aglow
Joy through me so unbridled flow

Competing for that precious lap ride
Sweet, innocent, little sibling's fight

Loser left to the grumbled walk
While winner basks in show and talk

Carefree days and happy nights
Off to bed! you two go after a whole day's fight

Even behind that silken rage
So cleverly is hidden Daddy's love and sage

We may age as life moves on
But these memories will never be gone
