Sunflowers of yellow gold
and peach trees along in rows
our naked feet we dipped in the creek
a kiss of wind was upon our cheeks
Thick blankets of tall green grass
that we both sat on back in the past
billowing clouds filled the afternoon sky
looked liked cotton candy to our childhood eyes
String fishing poles you made for we two
we got muddy clothes
and we wore no shoes
a waterfall cascades back from that time
pressed between the pages of 1859
Close your eyes now dear, is it me that you see
a short haired brunette smiling bright and free
you tousled my hair, as I looked up to you
a punch in the gut, I gave you one or maybe two
Treasures from a lifetime we will always keep
for as it is said still waters run deep
Life in the south Amen it will be
together forever My Johnny Rebel and Me
