No Regrets

No Regrets

When I was a young'un growing up

Never really imagined how my life would turn out

Back then, I was just happy to do all the things kids do

Well now that I'm an old duffer and looking back

I can honestly say my journey was way above average

With no regrets, no wish to change a single thing

Except for one... Linda, my loving wife of 42 years

Sadly passed away from breast cancer in 1999

We had a family of 5 wee ones, 3 of our own and 2 adopted

We just lived a comfortable life not wanting for anything

I wasn't famous... didn't own a mansion on a hill

Had a successful career of 55 years as a graphic designer

My present wife is Cathie, a second dear loving wife

Tied the knot 17 years ago and have a beautiful union

How fortunate can one person be

So as the title says... I can honestly say I have no regrets!
