We lived in the real world.
We had little material things.
We laughed.
We sang.
We danced.
We played.
We partied.
We prayed.
We held each other,
Competed hysterically about who could burp louder,
The neighbours and grandma listened in horror
As we got louder and louder
We talked.
We walked.
We never judged.
We lived in the real world,
Had little material things
Yet...
We had everything
We had little material things.
We laughed.
We sang.
We danced.
We played.
We partied.
We prayed.
We held each other,
Competed hysterically about who could burp louder,
The neighbours and grandma listened in horror
As we got louder and louder
We talked.
We walked.
We never judged.
We lived in the real world,
Had little material things
Yet...
We had everything
We had love,
unconditional.

When we have love and laughter we have it all...
ReplyDeleteYour sharing made me smile big because that is how life should be...
Well, maybe without loud burps.
But then a woman who can burp loud is one good woman.
Be well my Canadian friend...Greg
Part F: Nice and sincere. Makes sense.
ReplyDeleteDaughter #1: Awesomeness. You did a wicked job. Its a lil random.
This was when life was truly innocent. Now-a-days nobody has time for this much "fun", we are way too busy and caught up with the bills, issues and just life itself! Those were truly happy days, I really wish that life would get back to being so simple, easy and free.
ReplyDeleteA very nice tribute!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful day!

Without judging, and with love, it is truly the real world.
ReplyDelete"Precious memories, how they linger." I loved the poem Ms Rhapsody. A little bit of joy can go a long way!

ReplyDeleteJust wanted to thank you for visiting my space. I actually just read about your ‘journey’ to work. Utterly amazing at how people behave, not thinking of putting themselves in other’s shoes. I also wanted to thank you for visiting my space. Will send you a message asking you to join my tiny network, (until I find the time to invite others), if you’d like. Have a wonderful week blessed lady!
