Aiming To High

I went in search of a maiden fair
And saw a vision standing there
But I knew as I held her in my stare
For me to have a future with her
I should be twenty years younger 
And her standards be much lower

After a very super weekend I am back at the soup reading. I enjoyed reading your poetry this afternoon Paul. There are so many diverse writers here and I am so happy I am able to read most of them. Have a wonderful week and may you find what you are looking for in life and in your writing. Love, Carol
