It Was All So Simple Then

If we had a chance to do it all again
Would we ~~~
Could we ~~~

Grab that second cup of coffee
Come on in...
Let us revisit 1896







Memories
Light the corners of my mind
Misty watercolor memories
Of the way we were



Scattered pictures
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were



Can it be that it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line




If we had the chance to do it all again
Tell me - would we, could we?



Memories
May be beautiful and yet



What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget



So it's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were






So it's the laughter
We will remember


Whenever we remember
The way we were
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thank you so very much for visiting with me today.
I do hope you enjoyed our time spent in 1896

  
Life ~~ Sometimes it is quite simple
At times It can be extremely complicated
the  precious history lesson is
making the memories ~~~
and remembering "the laughter"


Lyrics by Barbra Streisand...Thank you Barbra

  10. Hello Connie,
    First, your cabin photos are WONDERFUL! You look perfectly at home in that setting. :) So beautiful!

    Second, thank you so much for your sweet visit to my blog...I wish you COULD sit in that pink chair all day. What fun we'd have!

    I really appreciate your kind comments...have you seen the fall Mercantile? I was privileged to write a piece about a really fantastic local shopkeeper. I think it's one of my favorite articles to date. It was such fun to hear her story!

    Blessings to you, Friend
