Old Barns and Memories

*for That Old Red Barn contest sponsored by Rick Parise They sat on the creaky old porch swing Looking across their dried up fields He was remembering a favorite tune Sang it sweetly into her good ear She flashed a smile into his eyes Gazed at their barn still standing proud "Oh Pa" she whispered,"do you recall When we met at that barn dance long ago?" He grinned at her the way he did And thought about that sweet young gal As they danced the lovely night away In that big old barn on down the road Now memories are all that's left to them But they're built strong like those old red barns
