when you are three
the days simply explode
like fireworks
and quickly
wink out again
so our earliest memories
end up as shattered fragments,
bits, and pieces of the most
significant moments
in our tiny little lives
maybe you’ll remember
riding on two wheels
when you were five
or recall climbing a tall tree
when you just turned six
or the time you practically flew off a roller coaster
when you were seven
but in my life
you are the highlight
and these are the days
that will stay with me forever
and though you may not remember
when you were three
i will remember for you
