Reflections of You

When Whip-Poor-Wills call evening is nigh My reflections turn to good memories. And you still choose me_ the apple of your eye To be your love even though soon we will die Come let abiding love fill our treasuries. When Whip-Poor-Wills call evening is nigh Many men run saying their last good-bye Leaving the love of their youth with emery. And you still choose me _ the apple of your eye To be your love, even when life goes awry. This last of life we're on our journey. When Whip-Poor-Wills call evening is nigh I want to rush to you my ally Where once again recharging energy. And you still choose me_ the apple of your eye Even though old, gray, aging_apron strings untie Like years ago when youthful~twenty When Whip-Poor-Wills call evening is nigh And you still choose me_ the apple of your eye Inspired by: Gail Angel Doyle Contest: Reflections Of You Finis' Written May 10, 2013
