The Bachelor - Both Audio and Text

Blustery winds were blowing and the grass was cold and damp, as I would creep across the morning lawn. The dew, again, had turned the morning paper into slush…but nourished all my flowers with the dawn! Many things in life are seen by some as good…some, bad. The dew is one example…as I’ve shown… And in the autumn of my life, I’ve learned the pros and cons of bachelorhood, and living all alone. Never quite convinced that I could make a marriage work, I’ve dated some…but never tied the knot. And though I’m glad for all my friends who chose to raise a fam’ly…I've never cared if I would try or not. Single life is often quiet…something that I like. The noise of children sometimes drives me nuts. But as I sit here watching as the door to having children - children of my making - slowly shuts, I’m no longer certain of decisions that I made when total freedom seemed the way to go… And speculate on how I’ll share the love I feel inside, the older - and the lonelier I grow.
