Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time,
There was someone who cared
It was always a joke
And someone always dared
You liked being goofy
And no one glared

Once upon a time
Life was actually fun
You hung out with friends
And your homework was always done
But life it changes somehow & somewhere
And you find yourself always wanting to run

Once upon a time
People still had guns
People still died
But they also still had fun
So next time you're feeling blue
Remember this, you're not the only one

Written in 1998 for a really good friend who shot himself after his wife filed for divorce, you never know what will happen.  If you love someone, tell them, you never know what may happen tomorrow!


 Hope,
Alicia A. Renzelman

Sad Story,
Rich for the Heart,
Yet, with every Lost
A New Life Starts.
