I Had A Dream

When I was a lad my mother would say, “if you dream, and wish it come true;

Eat your breakfast before you dare tell, anyone else or you’ll rue”!

Superstition or not, I heeded her words, it was a secret till I ate my first meal;

But after that I would tell everyone, and so happy would it make me feel!

Of course as a teen, I had a recurring one, that I’d meet the girl of my dreams;

We’d fall so in love and never would part; no one could break up our team!

There is an old saying, if you first don’t succeed, to try and try till you do;

So, at last after three, that went very wrong, my dream would finally come true!

The funny thing was I had given up hope, I thought the third was the charm;

But after that ended in such a bad way, my heart had a burglar alarm!

I vowed that no woman would have it again, unless she was faithful and true;

So for six years I partied and protected my soul, until the day I met you!

The moment I saw you it was love at first sight, I felt my heart start melting away;

I looked in your eyes, so honest and true, and I knew that you’d never stray!

We both had a dream that finally came true; we knew it on our very first date;

That our souls were in love and never would part, for they finally had found their dear mate!
