Wishing Wells

I keep throwing dimes an nickles in wells,

you would laugh if I were to tell,

so I'll hold the key and I'll never sell,


Just like when you hold my heart in your hand,

It makes me melt just watching you stand,

sometimes I even pretend in my daydreams

that you were sent to rescue me,

like some kind of prince charming,

Or some hero in fairy tale.


oh and when you look back my way its so easy

For me to forget what I needed to say

I know its going to be okay

and tonight will be just great


And while I'm still wondering, still thinking 

how can this be that this river runs so deep

that you say your always going to be so in love with me

while time passes by so fast 3 years celebrated 

a love intertwined was meant to last.

I no longer need to throw dimes and nickles in wells, 

so here's the key ask me and I may reveal

all my desires and hidden secrets

Thank you Carol your kind words always make my day! Sometime I run out of time and can not write because college is taking a lot of time out of me. In fact Monday is final week and I got lots to write to get good grades. It's always a pleasure to see you..glad that you came by and hope to see you again soon! HUGS, Jane
