If you had known me then You would have asked me to dance. Being the free spirit I was, I might have given you the chance. If you had known me then You would have liked my style. I was hip, I was cool With an honest and open smile. Fear was unkown and getting older was so far off. If adults discussed "golden years" I would flip my hair and scoff. But, years do fly by Time does not freeze You live life as you must and not as you please. My youth has since parted. Though I still flirt and blush. When questioned of age I say it with pride - but in hush. Home life is good now I am blessed with romance. Yet, if the right tune should play Would you ask me to dance? . . . . . .

Chris, you do put things so well. That part of you is still there....just older. Same with me. I really like this a bunch because not only is it so well put together, but it dances my tune, too. ....jo |

I don't remember reading this, before. It doesn't seem to me your muse is gone. |
