He lived before my time <br />His voice unique <br /> <br />His songs so sweet <br />He was a legend of his time <br /> <br />But by far my favorite of all <br />Was ‘What a wonderful World' <br /> <br />Everything was so pretty back then <br />The air we breathe <br />The stars at night <br />The new dawn and sunsets of old <br /> <br />‘And I think to myself' <br />What a wonderful world <br /> <br />Everything was so breathtaking back then <br />The mountains high <br />The river deep <br />The endless waves of time <br /> <br />‘And I think to myself' <br />What a wonderful world <br /> <br />Everything so innocent back then <br />A cry of a new born child <br />The laughter of children in a playground <br />The sigh of lovers walking hand in hand in a park <br /> <br />‘And I think to myself' <br />What a wonderful world <br /> <br />The essences of being just you and me <br />Hugs of a mother <br />Stern words of a father <br />Fond farewell kiss to a friend or family <br />The merriment of laughter as we joke with family and friends <br /> <br />Fond memories stir in my mind <br />As I think to myself what a wonderful world <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(OMG I had neil and not louie..ops sorry)<br /><br />Kaila George<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/louie-armstrong-what-a-wonderful-world-a-dedication/
