We laughed, we cried <br />We struggled and tried <br />Always there for each other <br />We had children three <br />We raised tenderly <br />Showing respect for each other. <br /> <br />Picnics in parks <br />Nice long walks <br />Some ways we spent our time <br />All done together <br />Whatever the weather <br />It really was sublime <br /> <br />Children got older <br />And certainly bolder <br />Flew the nest and moved away <br />But now they think <br />There could be a link <br />And the same will happen to them one day <br /> <br />When we are gone <br />and life is done <br />Lets hope it wasn't in vain <br />You know the rest <br />We were happy together its plain.<br /><br />Michael Keenan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/enjoying-life/
