One Day When.

Goldfinch60



Came the day when they left home,

Left home to find their own way,

Their own way in their lives,

I was always there for them.

 

Time flew past and there life flourished,

Then came the day that they met somebody

And the marriage vows were sworn,

I was always there for them.

 

Soon new lives were with them

As they too had children as we had them,

They too would grow and move on,

I was always there for them.

 

Now as I get older in my life,

Less years left than I have lived

I think of my children and grandchildren,

I was always there for them.

 

And in these final years I know

That they will all be able to walk through my door,

And feel that they are all still at home,

As I am always there for them.

    Good write Gold. You much older now? You and I are very old, dating from pre-1066!

  • L. B. Mek

    great choice of music to accompany and breathe even more life to your own musical words of soothing tethers: to that goodness, we all cherish in humanity..
    brilliant, yet again Andy!

        Yes, you are always there for them
        Remembering all those times, when

        Well prosed, my friend
