THE DAYS OF INNOCENCE

THE DAYS OF INNOCENCE

Author Name :Shirley Securro

 

Gone is the innocence of my yesterdays/
They are forever etched in time in all ways/
They were precious and lasting/
The days that were passing /
Now all of that is left behind/
Lost in time, but always in mind/
To bring out on days when needed/
Thank God that he has them seeded/
A place to be nurtured and fed/
Deep in my soul and in my head/
I bring out the innocence that I once knew/
At times when needed, at times out of the blue/
Those days of innocence will always be mine/
They are safe and sound and where I can find/
I can remember the laughter, the smiles, and the love/
All of these things sent down from above/
The love of family that surrounded all around/
I look and pursue and finally have found/
That same kind of love somewhere to be/
It's bigger and unconditional and all around me/
It's the love from my Heavenly Father above/
It came down from heaven light as a dove/
I can go on now because His love abounds/
It's comforting and nurturing and always surrounds! 

I wrote this after I lost my very special father!
