Memories Shared Sit'n on a Bench


Remember when he thought his fish

Could grant him a wish?


Yes, I remember that

It was fairytale

About a prophet and a whale.


No, no, dear... not a whale.

It was a fisherman

And a fish he caught.

For its freedom,

Three wishes were bought.


That's right...

I guess I forgot.


But do you remember the day he left?


Oh yes!

His medals on his chest.

He whispered in my ear,

"Don't worry, Mom,

I'll always be near."


I put the gold star in the window.

There's a fella come'n by

To pick up his Nintendo.


Do you remember when he broke his ankle?


Yes, dear, I do.

On a class trip to a farm.

He tried to ride a cow into the barn...

I was always scared he would come to harm.


Do you remember?

Yes, I do.
