A Trip Down Memory Lane

Lonely days go by, wondering in my
Head, where is that toy, I thought it was here.
Soon time fades away as I proceed
With the search of my beloved toy;
A 1998 Hees Truck to be exact.

Over a period of days, the thought
Soon races out of my mind.
Nowhere to be found, I give up.
In my mind waving a little
White flag,
Like in the cartoons.

Long since the lonesome desperate search,
Many years sprint past my eyes.
Finally, I stumbled across a bin,
Filled with glorious toys.

There at the bottom
Was my truck!

As I lay my eyes on the flickering lights,
Powered by batteries that have
Since been replaced.

As I stand there, toy in hand
My mind takes me back
Once again feeling
Like a child.
