Love Doesn'T Know Age Boundaries Poem by Francis Duggan

He met her at the Dalyston Hall on a Winter's night in June
And he asked her would she like to dance to an old fashioned tune
And to music of the twenties they waltzed around the floor
And she was sixty two years old and he was sixty four.

One dance led to another and later to a date
And after years of trying he realized that he had found his
Soulmate
Two marriage breakups and two grandkids for love a price to pay
But he found true love in Dalyston Hall though getting old and gray.

And she though never married had given birth to a son
And her son a grandfather now his daughter has a girl of one
She had fallen in and out of love for years but faithful men are few
And she had found true love at last and true love remains true

Those who believe that love is only for the young are wrong as wrong can be
For love as an non ageist thing doesn't know age boundary
And true love from the human heart is never far away
And many even fall in love when they are old and gray

In Dalyston Hall they fell in love 'sometimes dreams can come true'
And he was sixty four years old and she was sixty two
And love doesn't know age boundaries despite what some might say
It comes to people in their teens and to people old and gray.
