A White Flower For You.


                   I wonder where you are now
                   Years have been and vanished
                   Your youthfulness and beauty
                   I have never forgotten

                   I sit here watching time go by
                   Closing today, I open yesterday
                   You and I, running free
                   Hopping from fence to rocks
                   Into the long grasses we disappeared

                   Oh! Your beautiful hair flowing
                   Freely as you try to outrun me
                   Nearby the stream, hands in hands
                   We sit and make promises
                   If we only knew we could not keep

                   Times shared, times treasured
                   Oh! I loved you and you me
                   We never cried, so much in love
                   Only eight we were, but we had each other
                   That little white flower you gave me
                   Lives in my heart.
                   Wherever you are, we have never been apart.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
(Daniel J D)

I love this.  The pure love of children.  "Closing today, I opened yesterday."  Wonderful. Joyce
