Roger Roger Poet Rhyme

I WISH I HAD

As my memory turns the page 
On that fine day of my fine age 
I wish I held that dream so tight 
And never threw it out of sight 

On that fine morning, that fair glow 
I wish I did not let it flow 
Like running water free of rein 
Like blood that flowed out of my vein 

I wish I had the will to keep 
That dream that hunts me in my sleep 
The finest trace of faded past 
I should have kept in me to last

I wish I had poetry contest 
2nd place
