If I should stay another day
I'd lose myself in you -
Not that that would be a crime
But I've got things to do;
Perhaps one day my life will change
My little tasks be done -
And then with freedom's blessing
I'll ride off to meet the sun;
And will you come to meet me there?
Or join me on my way -
Experience the journey
Hand in hand we'll run and play;
The future beckons brightly
Every day begins anew -
He went and saved the best for last.............
My life begins with you.
That last stanza is so classy... well, so is the entire piece. Perfect rhyme and rhythm. t x

Circumstances too often dictate what we will do rather what we weould like to do
There is a bittersweet beauty in this, as there is in all of your recent writing, that goes straight to the heart... maybe we're at similar places - maybe you're younger than your age and I'm older than mine -.. I don't know.. but this touched me deeply.. there is a strong and positive air about the final verse, and yet there is something fragile, delicately balanced about the whole. I'm often reminded of Will Barber's style when I read your work... a poet who, who like yourself, has mastered the art of touching hearts deeply with deceptively simple looking poems. xxx
Linda, nice piece of work....don't think I found any of your poems I didn't like...still looking tho, lol
A class act as usual. no faults in the scanning, as usual, and entertaining...as usual. very well done.
