Let’s Keep it Like That
by Lily Moon Perez Dazzling snow Rolling waves A place at the dinner table Wish it would last forever Christmas at the happiest place on Earth Weekends in the sand Feasts in the dining room Please make it last forever Gazing at an amazing “Welcome” Dreaming to gaze at the never ending sea again Creating memories with her siblings, parents, and their parents She can’t wait until next time Strength is needed Her Grandmother who survived cancer To keep a family together She learned to master that strength Kindness It runs in the family Passed like an heirloom Now in her Happiness They kept through every hardship A smile exchanged is kept until next time She is happy Keepsake memories Of treasured places |
