Memories in Tens

Greg Roundtree 1961 (Georgia)



To all my loving family, and all my closest friends.
  I’ve spoke of youthful memories, I remember now and then.
 Their emotions overcome me, calling back my long past days.
 Remembering all the struggles, with the sweated blood I paid!
 Yet as always in my memories, comes insight from above.
 That the Savior also struggles, along my path with love!

By Greg Roundtree
