These I Have Loved Sweet memories of all that's past, For memories are the things that last. Thoughts that come-of childhood days- Awakened by some child that plays- When safe in loving arms at home- O foolish ones, why do we roam? Thoughts wander back to books and slates, The fun of school, the thrill of dates, The fears and tears of growing up Eager-but fearing, like a pup. Friends for life our school comrades To guide us when a strange life bades. A summer bonfire red and bright, A roast that lasts far in the night, The special fun that Christmas brings, With snow, and lights-delightful things. And these I have loved. The morning with its pearly dew, Its light pink sky, and hope anew, The silhouettes of autumn trees Against bright sunsets set to please. The midnight sky with silver stars, The splendour of Venus and Mars, The breathless still before a storm, Before the flash of light takes form, And then the smell so fresh and clean Raindrops glistening on the green. The scent of pines, a clear blue sky, The mountain trees through which winds sigh The fullness of my very living These things I love are everything. -Joyce Turner, Grade XII.
