Spring comes again

March 8, 2010 by Bilbo   Comments (3)

Spring comes again,
And all the promise that renewal brings
Lies before me.
But I have seen so many seasons,
And I am old.

I have no regret,
I have known the love that friendship brings
And I am thankful.
But the years have had their toll,
And I am old.

If summer warms me,
And I can drink some fine wine once more
I am content.
And if you hold me tight, tonight,
I may not feel so old.

Oh Bilbo, reading this poem brought tears to my ladies eyes. So mum and Burnie are sitting in front of the pc screen and tears are falling down on the keyboard.
My ladies are so very romantic, but I must admit so do I!
We LOVE your poem so very much and are running out of words to explain how deeply we are being touched in our mind and soul.
Thank you so much!
yours Burnie & Greg & humans xoxoxo
