James Fraser Poet Rhyme

If Only I Was Younger

If only I was younger, I know where I'd want to be
To be with someone special, who wants to be with me
We'd grow into our tomorrows sharing each others joy
Children, one two three, two girls and a boy

We'd write about many things, live as true love declares
Even dancing naked in the rain, towelling we would share
Holidaying in the sun, this white man to become tanned
Taking each day at a time, true love our only plan

Watching our children prosper, into adults they'll become
Our earlier years will live again, loving under the sun
I'm loving someone special who wanted to be with me
I'm glad we met those years ago, now in the arms of she

James Fraser April 2, 2015 at 1:34 PM Thank you Kate. This poem was written before a moment in my life happened. This moment happened as I hoped it would, with the latter stanza looking back at what the previous stanza's are leading to. It's lovely to see you here at my pages, hugs, James :) :)
