growing old with him

[lozzylor]

On the porch of a country cabin
On a rocking chair
An old woman sits with a thoughtful stare
Her eyes filled with passion
Each wrinkle a story
Her smile spreads wide
To show her glory

The empty chair beside her
Rocks gently in the breeze
The old woman begins to freeze
But a gentle hand strokes her face
Wraps her in a blanket made of lace
Sitting beside her on the empty chair
He gives her a loving stare

Together they smile
For they knew from the start
They’ll forever be together
And never apart

I awake from this dream
To see him there
I watch him sleeping
And smiling I stare
We are young right now
But I smile as I know
We’ve stil got years together to go

I cry from joy of what my dream had told
for nw i know he’ll still still be here Even when I’m old.

Absolutely beautiful - really painted a beautiful picture in my mind and couldn't help but think of my lovely husband. We had the song "Grow Old Along with Me" sung at our wedding - because the love and comfort of having some one you love to grow old with is amazing.
