Take me back.

Take me back to childhood,
when the love was all around;
when friends and families gathered,
when there was pleasant sound.

When relatives were friendly,
there were hugs that did abound;
when we sang carols after dinner,
when cheerfulness was found.

Take me back to my hometown,
when all our love was nourished;
when snow fell every Christmas,
and happiness did flourish.

When families stayed together,
thru the rough times and the good;
when we laughed beside the fire,
that burned with seasoned wood.

Take me back to older times,
when we cherished all the giving;
and love exploded all around,
by the reason of our living.
