Remember the Day

3/18/2021

 
By Dash Merrill
 
Spring 2020
 
I will remember the day this is all over
who cares if the Sun’s not shining
because it will be shining in my mind.
Who cares if it's wet and rainy
cause it will be the rain of freedom.
 
I will remember the day I will walk downtown again
I’ll get a big, sweet cookie at the café,
the kind that’s not too chewy but not too crunchy
 the kind that will melt in my mouth
just the way I like it.
 
I will remember the day I can talk to the store clerk again
the day I get to hug my friends again
the day when I don’t have to stray from the strangers walking past
or wonder about the way the restaurants and benches are being cleaned
the day I can sit in the park and say hello to all the birds
who have been wondering where everyone has gone for so long.
 
But until that day comes, I will have to sit here and witness the destruction of time,
witness history that will one day be in the classes we are free from today.
Until that day comes, I will wave from a far
and give my wishes through pixels.
But I’ll let everyone know that
I will remember the day this is all over.
 
Dash Merrill is a 16 year old student at Amherst Regional High School who loves to write. Woven Word has been a part of Dash's life since 5th grade and he has enjoyed every second of it. He has met so many amazing people and had so many amazing experiences in Woven Word and wouldn't be the same without it. Woven Word has been a great artistic outlet for him to get out all the stories and thoughts crammed in his head which only sometimes make sense.
