all those wonderful memories we collect from the past
and we keep the nicest forever to last

When I think of the aroma from the pipe
>of my Father's cherry blend bowl,
>I'm taken back to a place full of images
>that linger in my soul

>His gestures, a certain look, things
>he said
>Make a crystal clear picture
>that stays in my head
>
>I can see him yet sitting in his chair,
>puffing his pipe and filling the air
>With memories of yesterday and
>things we did
>In another time and place when I
>was a kid
>
>Listening to the peepers in the Spring
>I'm reminded of my Dad,
>The song they sing and the treasure
>I had

>Somewhere there's a pipe filled with love
>that I love so much,
>And if it smells of cherry blend tobacco
>it belongs to "Dutch"................
