Aged Soul

As the snowflakes softly fall

upon my deck this cold night,

I wonder, with all the trials I've had

did I do everything right?

 

 

It's easy to justify yourself  when 

no one's left to disagree with you,

old faces pass by me in my mind

when life was young,and love was true

 

 

I wonder some day if I will

be able to have just one chance,

to voice from my lips of old desires,

to ask her for one slow dance?

 

 

If I asked you to dance my dear

would you let me hold you close,

could I be the man you once loved,

you the Blushing Bride, delicate as a rose?

 

 

Love weaves down corridors of time

I think of things that you said,

but you're now a memory, I'm alone,

sleeping single in a double bed

 

 

Still I would not trade one year  for the

pleasures of being yours day and night,

tho I'm now in my late 80's

our Love was something I got right

You express reams of feeling for your memories of when you slept double in a double bed.
