Time and Place

There was never a time or ever a place When I wasn't effected with just a smile on her face, Or when I was warmed by her loving embrace. With her I feel God and His eternal Grace Like fruit from the vine- how sweet is the taste, When finding the love of your life- then such is the case, I finally got hold of a dream the was worth all the chase.. And, the memories we've made you could never erase, For each day we grow stronger no matter the space. So I guess here is the place & now is the time, To quit all my insanity & for once make up my mind , To grab hold this chance or get left behind. See, this girl; she's one in a million, & she calls herself mine Now my worlds looking up & I'm ready to climb, But one slip of the foot & I'm back in a bind- Loosin' this treasure it took a lifetime to find! Now, you can't place her value, cuz she's one of a kind Just the thought of her love, & my eyes start to shine... But, on the day when I must step from this place, cuz the Lord says it's time To that small patch of dirt, where they'll lay me in pine. I'll have only one wish, then be suited just fine Lord please grant the years of our love, to live in rewind!

William, so well written, enjoyed this stanza: "Now my worlds looking up & I'm ready to climb, But one slip of the foot & I'm back in a bind-" DHolmes
