REMEMBERING
my MOTHER, how she would, always HUM, along and SING
        REMEMBERING
        How my MOTHER, treated DAD, like ROYALTY, and a KING
REMEMBERING
my GRAND-MAs Enormous GARDEN, and all the home grown vegtables, strawberries, and blue berries, that she would give to us when we visited her, HOME to BRING
        REMEMBERING
        My childhood, and growing up in  WINONA- MINNESOTA, --EVERYTHING

July fourth in MINNESOTA, was a pretty big deal
thats when in our small town, we celebrated steam-boat days and the carnival  came to our small town, and always there was a cool farris wheel

Then the fire works and the celebration
all the carnival rides and games , all the excitement and fun

Summer time in MINNESOTA, we would be on the go and run
up in the early dawn, and our only rule was to be home before it got dark with the settilng sun

Then we could play ditch and tag, and hang around our house
until we got called to come inside, then we would scurry inside like a mouse

The summers in MINNESOTA, my brother and i, we traveled to every part of that town
at every end adventure and fun and excitement we happily found

GROWING up in our little TOWN
as a kid, in MINNESOTA,, im REMEMBERING, how me and my brother, all the fun, adventure, and excitement that together we FOUND
REMEMBERING
my dear MOTHER, AGNES, how she would always, hum along and SING

REMEMBERING
my MOTHER, how PEACE and HAPPINESS, to all others she would strive to KEEP, and BRING

REMEMBERING
the FAITH, of my MOTHER, and how she was the ROCK, of my FATHER, and how she treated him, like ROYALTY, and KING

REMEMBERING
the LOVE of GOD, that MOM, held in her HEART, REMEMBERING, MOM, always humming along, and HAPPINESS  to  EVERYBODY, SHE- would so easily, humbly BRING
