'Before the Parade Passes By!' - part two

There's just something about a good old-fashioned parade...
As I waited for the AF City float,
I couldn't help but shed a few tears
when our country's flag came by.
I love the high school bands
and watching the kids snatch up the
salt water taffy tossed our way.
Why did it feel so comforting?
Good memories, simple pleasures, a lawn chair in the shade...
Maybe it had something to do with watching my daughter and her friends having a great time.
And so did I.
